Subject: RE: BS: Bad Moon Rising for US Conservatives
Hi Uncle Jaque The power grab of which you speak will be quite evident in New York where the anti-globlization protests will so predictably degenerate into the standard self-indulgent display of destructive nihilism. It seems to be the standard formula for these professional protesters. Show up. Aggravate, sceam obscenities, burn flags. When the police don't respond, be menacing, escalate until the police have no choice but to get forceful. Then scream brutality. Take turns being "peaceful protestors" and rock-throwing berzerkers. Transmogrify the definition of violence. Show cleverly edited videos to Amnesty International.

Regardless of Mr. About Time's interpretation of the surveys, I don't think the anarchists understand or even care about winning the hearts and minds of our young people.
