| Description | San Francisco — Police arrested 29 protesters Tuesday after some chained themselves together and blocked an intersection near where a biotechnology conference was being held.
Most of the protesters, such as Kamala Stuart, 53, of Oakland, Calif., were demonstrating against genetically modified food, but conference organizers said most attendees were affiliated with the pharmaceutical industry, not the food industry.
“This is a protest rooted in ignorance,” said Jeffrey Feldman, a merchant banker from Philadelphia attending the conference. |
