In my opinion, right now they are. Apparently they don't have important jobs to keep if they are f**king with the rest of the working public that are trying to make a living in this wonderful economy.

-Meaningless to whom? Is it meaningless simply because you don't agree with it. Again I will go back to the Civil Rights movement. Many people believed that the bus boycott was meaningless and would accomplish nothing, and guess what. After months of protest and boycott change did occur. Maybe the protestors feel like if they continue to go on even in the face of adversity things will change because they true believe this war is not the right thing to do for this country.

No, it's meaningless because it's quite obvious that all the protesting in the world won't change a thing. You or anyone else that protests this war in major cities other than D.C. are not furthering a cause. Go to Washington, do it there where the voice and opinion makes sense. Sheesh, why is this so complicated to explain?

Yea, and why not make a noble use of that free speech and stand behind them for a change. It seems like no matter what kind of situation this is, just for the fact it's "war" people will protest it.

P.S. I do support peace, so don't label me a war hungry freak, just label me a freak please.
