One thing that is being overlooked is this: Once the number of protesters vastly outnumbers the number of police, it is a different game. The people have always had the power to strip government of it's power, however, the problem is most of them actually support governmental insanity.
After years of the mindless moronic people supporting governmental insanity, there is no turning back. The government by it's very nature becomes more and more corrupt with POWER. It's the nature of things.
Hitler and the Nazis comes to mind......anyone caught speaking out against the Nazi party and/or Hitler was promptly dealt with and I'm not talking pepper spray here.....

Yes we do. We spent money on them so we do.
Which brings us back to point one. We have to expect that the cops look out for themselves.
And I believe that was the reason Tim McVeigh did what he did. Because he felt it was so bad, we had to have another revolution. As I said, had he succeeded and his govt installed, in 200 years, we'd be hailing him as the next hero. I'm sorry that you are frustrated but that doesn't mean you can simply declare that things are broken so you are forced to take the lawn into your own hands. If we allow these idiots to simply do as they please, what is to stop the next group that declares things are beyond repair and we need a revolution and the next one and the next one?
Nobody is saying you cannot protest. Do it legally. Don't force yourself on others. There are places for protest just as there are places to camp, take a leak, etc, etc. Your right to carry protest signs is NOT being infringed on when I say you can't shout your message in my ear. Your right to protest on a public street ends when you are using megaphones to blast your message into the wee hours of the morning, for example.
