I was thinking, are anti-war protestors doing more harm than good? I mean its good to have a voice, but at what cost and who is your audience.

I heard a report that it was costing San Francisco $900,000 (for police) to control the anti war crowd! thats $900,000 that could go to either homeland security, drug enforcement, homicide investigation whatever else that could be used to make us safer. That is just SF what about NYC and their police.

I read something about a death march today, something about ppl blocking and intersection, that gives you alot of press, but that also i think would make ppl trying to get somewhere angry, and not like anti war protest.

I don't know, i just think the way some protests are going right now is doing more harm... If you have an opinion maybe you should do it in a way that doesn't really harm another person, or harms less ppl.

Well just my thought of the day...(bored at work)

They asked some of the protestors on ABC news about that.

One said "Send the bill to the government". Great, he wants me to pay for it.
The other, barely able to talk over his horribly cracking voice said "There are babies dying, all you care about is getting to work on time."
