FBI classification

The FBI classification of protestors in 1967. Bet it's changed.

I think there are just two now:

[COLOR="Navy"](1) Attention Whores. People who want publicity, any publicity, willing to get arrested to get it.

(2) Martyrs. People who want to go ahead and make our day.[/COLOR]

1) Fer us.
2) Agin us.

Don't forget social justice warriors.

This isn't that far off from today.

If you look at what happened in Ferguson, you had people there genuinely protesting against the Ferguson power structure. Then you had some overcome by groupthink...and those looking for cover to cause trouble. Most of those arrested weren't from the immediate area around Ferguson.

Crowds and emotion are neat drugs.

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

~George Carlin

Stupid people in groups just doing their jobs concern me more.

What is that, a rabbit?
