...saw the San Franciso protesters on TV. A week or so ago I saw the organizer, or at the least one of the organizers, on the Bill O'rielly show and he told O'rielly that he intended to bring the city to a halt. Can anyone explain to me why he, or anyone would think this strategy would help the cause of "peace"? By the way the guy was a retired military COL.

People like to feel important.

protesting the way they are doing it, is just stupid

they are just causing major problems. sure, we have the right to protest, but there is a right way and a wrong way to do anything.

and it doesnt matter if you protest or not, the government is not going to stop the war over some protestors that cant control themselves. all that will happen is some of them will get arrested, beaten by cops, tear gassed, pepper sprayed, maybe even killed, but the war will go on.

kinda pointless... sending mass mail to thier senators would be more effective

i think we know where the senators stand on the war.

:glugglug

I think there should be more nude protests :)

very true, but sending them mass mail is more effective means of protesting something than say, blocking major roadways, getting sprayed with pepper spray, beaten with a stick and arrested.

hippies are hippies, deep down inside all they wanna do is 'fight' but for some reason they always protest war.

hippies are funny creatures.

Vietnam, Iraq, whatever... haven't the hippies learned that standing in front of stuff is useless. If they want to stop something they have to be a bit more forceful (which is against their nature). Idiots.
