You have just crushed the pride, the hopes, and the personal dreams of about 12 very passionate and dedicated souls, Big Mick.

You big meanie...! ;-)

It would have been more effective, I think, if they had built the Bush-riding rocket mockup around a real honest to goodness JATO pack, strapped a couple hundred pounds of dynamite around it, and fired the thing into the state capitol building. THAT would have got some attention, by golly...as well as demonstrating the utter futility of war.

Of course, if they did that they would probably get to spend the next five years or so in some lovely facility like at Guantanamo, so it's kind of a moot point.
