, it is every Americans right to protest. I remind you that America was formed in chaos and rebellion. Did you forget? Yes, it is. But it is not every American's right to break the law. They break the law, they will be arrested.

Waldo, I don't have a problem with protests although I've never gotten involved with one. What I have a problem with is when they get violent or jeopardize other citizens lives. I think there is the potential for both of those things to happen this week in NYC. <<No matter how much chaos they create, it is every Americans right to protest.>> Not true. There's a point (which I think this weeks protestors will exceed) where protesting becomes a crime. So far 250 people have been arrested and I suspect that number will grow.
