So . . . probably not.

The Tweeter literally couldn't glance at wikipedia for three seconds before slapping this out there.

The man's son and current owner was out there advocating for the bridge to be cleared of protesters. He said either lift the mandate or clear the bridge. He didn't really seem to care which, as long as the bridge was reopened.

Which you'd expect of the person that owns it.
