Hey Party Boy, that's hardly the point. Every mass gathering has its share of latecomers and bandwagon hoppers that just like to cause mayhem. The majority of protesters are peaceful and earnest. The WTO protest has been in the planning stages since late last winter and has involved a diverse variety of quite mainstream groups who are very concerned about the subjugation of our nation's democratic institutions to a consortium of international wheeler-dealers. These groups include the AFL-CIO, various environmental groups, Civil rights groups, etc. Obviously you've never protested anything in your self-satisfied little life. It takes more than a week of planning to get 50,000 people to Seattle. And it also takes guts to sit there in front of stormtrooper cops who would prefer to just blow your head off. Believe me I know. Welcome to America. Party! Party! Party! yourself.
