Dozens of protesters who stood across a California bridge, shutting down traffic for several hours as they called for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas, will not have to serve jail time, prosecutors said.

In lieu of a criminal proceeding, the 78 protesters were ordered to do five hours of community service and pay restitution for blocking the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge during a protest in mid-November.

"This is a victory not only for those exercising their right to protest a genocide being fueled by their tax dollars, but for the growing global movement demanding freedom for the Palestinian people," said Aisha Nizar, one of the protesters. "We emerge from this case even stronger and more united in our commitment to one another and to the people of Palestine."

Approximately 200 total protesters participated in the Nov. 16 protest in San Francisco as the city was hosting President Biden and other world leaders for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit.

The protesters blocked all lanes of traffic into San Francisco on the bridge’s upper deck and demanded that Biden call for an immediate cease-fire in the war between Israel and Hamas. Some drivers even tossed their keys into the bay.

As a result of the protest, 80 suspects were arrested and 29 vehicles were towed.

The suspects faced charges of false imprisonment, refusing to comply with a peace officer, unlawful public assembly, refusing to disperse and obstruction of a street, sidewalk or other place open to the public.

Prosecutors ultimately dropped one case for insufficient evidence, according to the San Francisco District Attorney's Office. Another person declined the court’s pretrial diversion program.

The remaining 78 accepted the court's offer, which will include each person paying a to-be-determined restitution.

"We remain committed to ensuring that San Francisco is a safe city for everyone who lives and enters our city," District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said in a statement. "We will continue to ensure that appropriate avenues for the expression of free speech and social advocacy exist and are protected in San Francisco. I truly believe that we can achieve engaging in free expression while maintaining the safety of our communities."

Similar protests blocking major roadways and calling for a cease-fire were similarly carried out in Los Angeles, New York, Boston and Philadelphia.

More than 30,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza, according to the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry. The ministry doesn’t differentiate between civilians and combatants in its total.

Negotiations between Israel and Hamas for a potential cease-fire or potential long-term peace remain ongoing.

So, according to the latest data, Democrats are losing their once customary advantage among Black, Latino and Asian American voters. A lot of Americans are realizing they disagree with the Dems, and they're under no obligation to vote Democrat just because of the color of their skin. Just like I'm under no obligation to like pickleball because I'm White. Isn't that great? 

Democrats keep insisting that if you look a certain way, you have to vote a certain way, but it's like I always say, character is what matters most. And looks are only important when hiring assistants, but are the Dems really losing the Black and Hispanic vote, or are they losing Black and Hispanic men? What if this isn't about race at all? And more about the sexes? And why aren't the Dems talking about that? Because it tells you who's pushing men away from the Dems, AWFLs, affluent White female libs, the kind who embrace any current cause, but silent if something happens to women who don't agree with their views. 

They have lousy life skills to test their dads and take pictures of their food, to fill the emptiness of their lonely, miserable lives until they die alone and are eaten by their cats. They work in academia, government, HR, journalism. They love talking about male tears as a traffic and chronic victimhood. They're the women driving men out of the party. And believe me, it's scary enough that they're driving.

NEW POLL REVEALS DEMS ARE LOSING SIGNIFICANT SUPPORT FROM THESE 2 KEY DEMOGRAPHICS: 'ESPECIALLY CONCERNING'

ANNOUNCER: A sexist would say!

A sexist would say all that. The Dems know that women, specifically single women, are how they win elections. Just look at 2020, 53% of married women back Trump, 46% of married women backed Biden, 34% of unmarried women back Trump, while 64% of unmarried women backed Biden. Like the crowd outside my dressing room that's a lot of unmarried women. So when we see voting blocs start to shift Republican, it's not because of race. It's not that men hate people who are different. We love equal rights. We just hate special rights. 

But the Dems got so obsessed with race they forgot about people and in the process, alienated men in favor of activists. But how are they doing it exactly? Well, when you deny men's contributions to society or claim incessantly and incorrectly that we're being rewarded unfairly for it. The real wage gap is in the facts about the wage gap. Also, when you portray us as potentially bad instead of potentially good in the waring world of identity, men are the first to go. Well, unless they're men who like to dress up as women.

BIDEN'S DIMINISHING SUPPORT AMONG YOUNG BLACK VOTERS IS 'MOST CONCERNING,' SAYS 'BLACK VOTERS MATTER' FOUNDER

TIKTOK VIDEO/@DYLANMULVANEY

You know, it's nice that Dylan finally came out as a parody of women. To Mulvaney, chicks just take pills and bubble baths and don't know sports. It's a cute stick, this woman face. But wait a decade or so and like blackface, it'll be seen as gross, except on late night talk show hosts. But Mulvaney symbolizes the Dems problem, Bud tanked their stock by indulging an activist splashing around in a bathtub while pretending to drink their beer. This bud was no longer for you and so is this party. Where the women are women and the men can be too. But it's not just about men. 

The Dems have embraced the misogyny that, like Mulvaney, pretends to be pro-women. The Dems cannot say what a woman is. They see activists as having a priority over parents when it comes to gender. They see female sports as the next frontier for mediocre dudes, and they look down at women who make different choices than they do. So maybe the Dems have become a woman party, but it's a type of woman. It's one that says she's for choice, if only they're her choices too.

LATINO EVANGELICALS REJECTING DEMOCRATIC PARTY, PASTOR SAYS: 'GOING TO VOTE LIKE NO OTHER IN NOVEMBER'

So let's say a young woman told a Republican friend that she wants to get a job at a bank and become VP by the time she's 35, her Republican friend will say, fine, whatever, good for you. But if a woman went to a liberal friend and said, hey, I want to get married and raise a family, by the time I'm 28, she will be laughed at. She'll probably be called a Stepford wife because that's what this Stepford bloke will say. 

So maybe I'm wrong about this being a woman's party when they abandoned women who choose different paths, when they laud men and female sports, when they support the destruction of kids' bodies, when they said nothing about an unarmed female murdered on Jan 6, when they focus on language about an illegal instead of the woman he murdered. So I get why men are leaving the Democrats. 

They want to treat women differently than the party does, and by differently we mean better.
