Activists block road in Nevada, get arrested at gunpoint

Activists blocked roads in Nevada on the first day of the Burning Man festival with a trailer, barricades, and banners reading ‘Burners of the world, unite!’ and ‘General strike for climate’. A huge traffic jam was created due to the protest, and police rushed to the site to disperse the rally. The park rangers however might have gone a little bit overboard with their methods, as they tried to remove the protestors physically, and… at gunpoint.
