    “We support the right of people to protest and demonstrate but it must always be done in a peaceful and respectful way.”

    Go stand over there so we can continue to ignore you

      Protesting is allowed in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.

      The powerful don’t do anything in a peaceful or respectful way.

    All this does is turn people against the cause. But then again, I feel like this was done to make the people who did it feel special and important.

    The fallacy of any publicity is good publicity needs to be put to rest.
