The peace protesters didn't make themselves look stupid during Vietnam. The "silent majority" sat on their a## while they became emboldened. Then our troops got spit on. And the troops were mostly draftees who could not control if they were drafted or not.

Some of us have vowed never to let that happen again. And I believe that we are having a positive affect on these protest not getting out of hand. The sheep who come to these events see what is going on and hear what we have to say. We've seen a good number of them leave protests before it is done. Without us there, the antiwar demonstrations would be growing a lot more than it is.

I really do agree with you [Mr]T, I just would like to see those that carry banners that I want to get behind also be setting a example of rationality and maturity. I think the observers notice that just as much as they do the slogans and signs.
