All together now...
"Four dead in Ohio,
Four dead in Ohio (howmanymore?)
Four dead in Ohio"
I think we *do* have these sorts of protests, only now, instead of being concerned with our dead and our civil rights, we now protest the IMF, trade agreements, and eating animals. I think people have decided to use large-scale protest against what are perceived as the root causes of world confllict rather than the actual conflicts themselves.
Sure, we have protests against the war, but the real window-smashing, car-burning bashes are reserved for things like the WTO meetings.
