As a noun it means a blockage. It can be a blood clot inside the body, or it can be a boulder on a highway. It impedes movement. Legal obstruction means taking unlawful means to suppress some legal process, such as a prosecution, and that can take many forms--attempting to get witnesses to lie or to not testify, threats, false testimony. It impedes the legal process.

I'm assuming that you are referring to 'obstruction' in the legal and law enforcement sense. That would be a wide range of things from destroying evidence in an investigation to preventing an officer from doing his job.

It means somethings blocking something. Like a car is obstructing (blocking) the road. Stuff like that or you are hindering a crime scene investigation.

Well, in the bowells, it would mean your clogged up and constipated.
In the law, it means that you tampered, hid, excluded or destryed the evidence of a crime.
At a concert or sporting event, it could be the lady with the big beehive hair in front of you.
I guess that's all I can come up with at the moment...............
