      Choose your opinion(s) (no write-ins):

      1. When unjust rulers, corrupt officials, and an apathetic populous plague us, civil disobedience is the best and only option.
      2. Damn spoiled kids, thinking a day of rowdy marching speaks louder than the previous days spent in coffeeshops wearing sweatshop clothing.
      3. Out-of-touch hippies, providing a cover for looters and anarchists.
      4. Irrelevant in this day and age.
      5. Goooooood eatin'!

      5 But I don't like them bruised like those we caught after the protests in Oakland the other day. You can eat around that though. Also, #3. They are a cover for anarchists and several communist groups.

          People who protest beer are good eating, those who protest women get my support, those who protest sport probably fall into the spoiled kids category. :-D Those who protest the war are ineffective but understandable. I still think they'd be much better off writing letters though, especially in the UK (not sure elsewhere). A million thought out letters on the doorstep of Whitehall would have been a lot more devastating to Tony Blair than a million people walking through London with silly signs cut out of the Daily Mirror.

                                  5 But I don't like them bruised like those we caught after the protests in Oakland the other day. You can eat around that though. Also, #3. They are a cover for anarchists and several communist groups.

                                      There is a difference I believe. The commies and anarchists are hiding behind anti-war protests and setting their agendas. Republicans and anti-abortion people aren't hiding usually.

No I don't approve of communism and anarchists, but they have a right to protest. However, they are hidding behind these anti-war protests making the legitamate protestors look illegitamate. BTW, that was just my opinion of the current crop of protestors, not the right to assemble in general.

If those people were breaking the law and endangering others, then they should have been dispersed. I do think the cops should use restraint.
