Sure, clear them off the bridge, arrest any that refuse to move, etc

But the emergencies act? Freezing bank accounts?

They didn't blow up the bridge did they?

- the emergency act was used after the bridges were cleared

- the private banks decided to close the accounts, ostensibly acting by themselves (but probably not) and not by government order

Stuff even two years ago is lost to history
