[Timber Loftis]

Cerek and JD, please quit with the senseless diatribe and rhetoric. We are not headed in the same direction, because we DO NOT march in protest against our banks and we DO NOT blame our banks for the problems we have. (Even though perhaps we should.) Instead we THROW MONEY at our banks. We almost worship them, with reverence, it would seem.

I have never heard of or seen a government employee protest march in the US, much less one that turned violent. I have seen government workers in some limited areas, such as Cook County, strike over wage negotiations, but nothing akin to a march or anything that turned violent. In fact, the only violent marches I have seen or heard of in this country since the civil rights era are marches perpetrated by environmental or anti-establishment groups, such as those in Seattle some 15 or more years ago.
