full on....
It's pretty quite businesswise here. I know countless people in my industry who've gone away, or stayed home.
2000 arrests would be pretty wild.
I just don't see the effectiveness of protesting.
I mean, register to vote. Vote. Hand out pamphlets. what is the point of simply hounding a government? Everyone can and does do that. Get a policy and run if you want to. Get out there and get people to vote for a candidate you support?
It just seems to be an epidemic of powerlessness prevalent in America, despite this being a democracy.
Dollars and the vote make all the difference. Not protests.
And certainly not beating up a police officer doing his job, and beating him senseless. I spit on that kind of violence.
