Likewise, some people might avoid publicly protesting because they want to avoid being in the same

square mile as the fringe elements that show up for these events. I’m not talking about the undercover

policemen. People who incite violence may be getting paid time and a half for working on Saturday. Â

There is no collective liability for all the ideas at the protest. People who show up to oppose the

MBT SHOES are not culpable because someone else shows up with a sign advocating bombing whomever.

 On the other hand, some of the people there might look at me and also shake their heads ruefully. Â

(AntiMBT SHOES event attendees are supposed to be clean shaven. Is it really necessary to be chomping

on a cigar? And where did he get that hat? No one wears hats like that in Brooklyn.)

Attending an antiMBT SHOES march is one of the easiest ways to drive neoconservatives visibly insane.

The New York Sun suggested in February 2003 that the New York Police Department send two witnesses

along for each [antiMBT SHOES march] participant, with an eye toMBT SHOESd preserving at least the

possibility of an eventual treason prosecution since all the demonstrators were guilty of giving, at

the very least, comfort to Saddam Hussein.
