I got caught in the middle of the protests 😁😁
Yea we came from Fullerton and took harbor but were re routed unfortunately I knowing the area found ball and harbor and ended up stuck in the middle....I've never seen police hanging off of pick up trucks and non marked SUVs while horses were galloping down ball and helicopters were hovering right above.....pretty chaotic.....I'm resting now at paradise pier bandstand with a cocktail now 😂 - Dave

Glad your safe and can now enjoy your cocktail!!! : ) - NurseJennJillO 307.7 #586 3:51PM
Lol the cocktail sounds necessary! Glad you are safe, hopefully getting out of the parks will be less eventful for you! - ashmonster 31.7 #4381 4:25PM
OMG that is scary!! They all look like a bunch of militia or something, with their faces all covered up. Please be careful Dave and everyone at or near the parks. - DisneyFanZoe

Dave maybe when the crowd get to the resort. u should join the crowd and hold a sign with your Banana suit on that says I love Disneyland. Jk Dave Please Be Safe out there And also everyone else on there way to the park. - DarkwingDuck

I think its safe to use another route to get to the m&f parking structure. This situation is very volatile I would hate to see any one hurt over this nonsense. Please be careful out there. - vincentchase

It looked like half the people had cameras, so I assume that they were there taking pics of the protestors, which is just playing into their hand and giving them the attention they want. Sad. - msdizmaui
521.5 #226 3:38PM
The sad part is...most of those people dont know why their protesting....they just joined in.. - Jfigg23 254.7 #990 4:28PM
There is a good chance that they partly have cameras to video tape the cops. They want someone to get out of hand so the can tape the cops using force then claim they did nothing to deserve such force. Those who protest peaceful because they actually care are on thing but I have a feeling that most of them just want to cause trouble. - aidensmama 339.4 #446 5:07PM
To me this seems like a waste of energy. There are so many bigger fish to fry in the world. Glad you're safe Dave. Looks like I'll be rethinking visiting later this week unless things calm down - ladylikesdisney

Once you get into the parks it's fine, just avoid the downtown Anaheim area (harbor and Anaheim blvd's) but I completely agree these people are idiots regardless of the situation that sparked it. Their behavior has made me not care what their position is anymore. - Pixarprincess 531.5 #219 3:59PM
You're right, but it's the coming and going that worries me, these protests never end peacefully and I don't want to be there when the poop hits the fan. There's lots of other things for me to do around here :) - ladylikesdisney 926.7 #96 4:03PM
Love the f bomb drop. lol. Be safe out there brother. - Chumash28
767.1 #130 4:25PM
Yikes - Dizkid
284.3 #724 3:02PM
Ya, wearing the banana suit is definitely not a good idea in this situation. Get outta there! lol - Alicewhoareyou
543.9 #213 3:05PM
If they're only in that area of Anaheim, the Toy Story Lot may be safer and easier to park in - BaseballMickey_CM
2993.9 #15 3:06PM
Please stay safe, Dave. - flukefan
266.4 #880 3:07PM
Just tell them you're looking for a place to park and unload your signs to join their cause, then GET OUTTA THERE! - susieQzee
486.8 #250 3:07PM
OmGosh Dave! That is so scary! That was hard watching that video! Glad your ok! - ohhhtoodles
365.2 #396 3:07PM
That is so disheartening. I truly hope no one is hurt and nothing is damaged. Please be careful out there! - LaPearleNoir
620.9 #179 3:11PM
What the heck? What could they be protesting near DL?? - Simbaholic
30.4 #4433 3:13PM
search lostgirl7988's post... - Alicewhoareyou 543.9 #213 3:14PM
Look up KTLA news and then you'll know why they're protesting. It's kinda crazy! - NurseJennJillO 307.7 #586 3:50PM
Be safe Dave!! - catiem_CM
311.1 #569 3:16PM

Thank you for posting this, we were literally stepping out the door to head over to the parks. Will have to make new plans, there is no way I am going to risk our safety. This is incredibly frustrating, these protests don't even have a valid point. All they are accomplishing is making Anaheim dangerous, which is just what they are protesting aren't they? Protesting the supposed "violence" from cops? How is vandalizing buildings and making people fearful supporting your message?! Sorry. Was not meant to turn into a rant. Please be safe MW Family, this is getting ridiculous. - ashmonster
31.7 #4381 3:29PM
Just go to Toy Story lot instead. You shouldn't have to make new plans today. - Alicewhoareyou 543.9 #213 3:32PM
^this - BaseballMickey_CM 2993.9 #15 3:33PM
Amen! - NurseJennJillO 307.7 #586 3:51PM
Thanks guys. Ended up staying home and watching some Olympics! We'll brave it tomorrow :) - ashmonster 31.7 #4381 4:20PM
So scary please be careful! - Missymoo
426.6 #302 3:31PM
How scary. These protests are keeping me from going to Disneyland. :( - Amy23
273.5 #814 3:32PM
Its not gona stop me. :) were texans. We know how,to handle protestors...:) (puts on aviator sunglasses, cowboy hat, and.takes a bite of a churro...) - Jfigg23 254.7 #990 4:30PM
That's partly what they want. Disneyland is Anaheim's biggest source of revenue (I would guess). They want to get the city officials attention. - aidensmama 339.4 #446 5:10PM
Wow that's pretty scary to be in that situation - SorcererD91
506.0 #235 3:32PM
What are they protesting - Singernicky
49.6 #3824 3:40PM
The rising cost of milk. - DisneyFanZoe 1099.6 #75 3:50PM
😂😂😂😂 - toph 2406.7 #26 5:48PM
Wait a minute that's the road I take to Disneyland... Down harbor from Fullerton area all the way to Ball Rd. I don't know any other way! - Jenniferr
428.1 #298 3:53PM
If you are planning on going today either take the 91 to the 5 south to head in or take Euclid to ball (east on ball) instead. Should allow you to bypass all the craziness - Pixarprincess 531.5 #219 3:57PM
I avoided Ball and Harbor. Came down the 57, exited Katella, right on Disneyland drive, uturn into the structure. Didn't see any protestors or police at all. - Mimmy
1405.6 #57 4:02PM
When on it, had no issues. It's clear. - Singernicky
49.6 #3824 5:11PM
Oh man this was legit, I was expecting to see something funny. Such a shame they feel the need to do it front of parks. - donnievegas
1127.7 #72 5:17PM
Where's the Ace of Base bro?😜 - Mouse4life
1086.2 #78 5:17PM
I can hear the video but cant see it. Sure sounded scary. We are going tomorrow night for the woc glow with the show event. Kinda nervous. - chipanddalefan
530.1 #221 5:18PM
You would think they could give our National Guard a little work to do and arrest these idiots for "unlawful obstruction of traffic" at least.. add some jay-walking charges, endangerment of the public and conspiracy charges... all could stick. - TheBudd
357.3 #406 5:21PM
Wow, that's crazy Dave. I had no idea it was like that with everyone just walking down the middle of the street like that. - Tom
