I see nothing wrong with having someone who attends a few events and determines the safety of a particular group. Your right to protest doesn't include shutting down highways and disrupting people's lives to further your own political agenda.

People from Peace Fresno a threat!!!!
Peace Fresno
and, God and Government forbid, Quakers!!!!
Florida Quakers

An agent provocateur in those groups would have a devil of a time to cause them to commit violence lol

Wow, Big Brother is either lame in the intel area or paranoid to the hilt. Both?

I hope we never become like those third world dictatorships that harass nuns and priests...oops, we have
Daniel Berrigan, S.J.

Guess we're better than those countries, 'cause we don't kill our protestors.
oops again...ok...so Victoria Snelgrove wasn't protesting but is a lesson as to the need for non-violent protests
wounded

killed

OK, there was Kent State
Remember

Thinking of blocking a bridge?

The march started on Sunday, March 7. As marchers crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, named for a Confederate general, they were met by police and state troopers, some on horseback, with orders from Governor George Wallace to stop the march. [65] They told the marchers, "It would be detrimental to your safety to continue this march. You are ordered to disperse, go home or to your church. This march will not continue." [66] Then they attacked. They fired tear gas into the crowd and severely beat protesters. "They literally whipped folk all the way back to the church," remembered one marcher. "They even came up in the yard of the church, hittin' on folk. Ladies, men, babies, children -- they didn't give a damn who they were." [67] That night, TV stations interrupted their normal programming to show clips of the violence at Selma. ABC was showing a documentary on Nazi war crimes, Judgment at Nuremberg. Many viewers thought the clips of the violence at Selma was part of the film. "The violence in Selma was so similar to the violence in Nazi Germany that viewers could hardly miss the connection," wrote SCLC's Young. [68]

Since the Boston Tea Party (which I hope American school children still learn about!), Americans have a history of protest. Let's not forget it. Let's make it, in the memory of Martin Luther King, Ghandi, and Jesus Christ, non-violent.
