What would you suggest they do; pelt him with falafel balls???

Blaire: I have found that the people who protest most vehemently are the ones who don't have friends and family over there. *Not all, but in my experience most*. What is for us a legitimate concern for loved ones and a desire not to undermine their mission is for some of them just an intellectual exercise or even something to do for the day. (ie "Want to go to the skateboard park?" "nah, there's a big protest going on downtown. Maybe some of the girls will flash their boobies" "Dude! I am so there!!!" ) can't really blame them because I realize how easy it is to offer a trite solution when you're somewhat removed from the situation.

It doesn't matter what other people think, honestly. Your honey doesn't care about people blocking traffic in New York City. He cares about you at home thinking of him. And you know that I'm also thinking of you and him and praying for his swift and safe return home. So are millions of others.

DZLM,
Tracy
