Depends. Only if I can get too cool for you and start off a protest to your protest to end protests.

If ever there was an event with the Sword of Damocles hanging over it with the word "GODWIN" etched on the blade....

Noble... trivializing and deriding one of the few admirable social movements the human race has undertaken in recent history... one of the few signs that our society might NOT be a bunch of ignorant, apathetic, easily manipulated morons...

Kudos to you sir! Your cynicism in the face of human spirit certainly puts you in a class above all of us!

last year i happened upon a marching protest on davie street. there i am wearing my salesmen clothes and cardboard bunny ears (it was around easter and it made the gay people giggle) wondering how to make the most out of this situation. some chick was on the megaphone doing the whole

what do we want?
a couple people respond with no enthusiasm
peace
when do we want it?
they sounded like tired robots
now.

so i walk up to the chick and tell her that she needs to put more spunk into her chant (i'm sure i didn't use the word spunk, but it sounds better than enthusiasm). she looked at me like i was dirt under her nails and asked if i wanted to try, probably thinking that i'd say no. i shrug my shoulders give her my box of junk to hold onto and started running up and down the line of people yelling her chant. by the Time i was down with those people they were yelling with zest :)

you didn't really need to say that you were replying to daves post though. when you said GODWIN and HITLER in the same sentence, it kinda tells people that you are talking to him.

edit-think of all that energy you could've saved by not having to type in that sentence.

Admirable?

I've been to 3 protests in the last couple of years. One was against starting up the war in Iraq and two were against tuition raises.

But at least I'm glad I helped make a difference.

US Federal elections are coming up this fall. Should we have marches across the world letting Americans know we're behind them 100%, and that we think their president is doing a bang-up job?

PS ---> we were some of the most enthusiastic protesters at the rally, robyn.. although sometimes our hooting and hollering was a weeee bit excessive.
