Interesting protest idea. According to the article below the police cut open the container and arrested them.

Protests over a planned gas pipeline took an interesting turn Wednesday when two people locked themselves inside a shipping container blocking the construction site on the Peekskill-Buchanan border.

According to a press release from ResistAIM, the protesters had been prepared to stay in the renewable energy powered, 20-foot-long “home” for several weeks.

A Facebook post said that police had used industrial saws to open the container and extract the demonstrators.
