I wouldn’t be surprised that if you looked at the budgets for all these summits you’d find out that the protesters were part of the program; I mean, not having protesters would be like being loser.
Maybe compulsive Domino players?
“Those out-of-town guys were too well organised, we’re Anarchists, dude, we NEVER organise!!!”
Being a veteran of several such protests and disagreeing strongly with the tactics of the tiny minority of protesters who think fucking up Starbucks, banks, and McDonald’s is a good way to get the point across - not to mention the possibility that people who initiate such actions could very well be planted in there - I should very much hope that people of RR’s ilk find out the hard way that their insurance doesn’t cover such injuries.
Also, giving Goose Island to people like RR is a tragic waste of perfectly good beer.
In every generation, a leader arises, champion of the comfortable, palladin of the privileged. To griddle his loins and struggle against the scruffy hordes of Anarch, in their tens. To boldly stand athwart those who would undermine the truest American values: a solid portfolio, an admirable credit rating, and good grooming. Supported only by his moral convictions and a few thousand police truncheons, he stands ready to sacrifice the unworthy on behalf of those blessed few whom God, in His wisdom, has determined to be the appointed stewards of a nation’s wealth.
Such a man was Senator John Blutarsky. May we see his like again? Perhaps. Perhaps he may rise from amongst us, and go forth to do battle, never to return. We can only hope.
Well, when those anarcho morons find people in danger of death by fire, they shout anticapitalist songs to them. Yeah, those Greek bank tellers are the lackeys of capitalism !
Luci–how do I represent privilege, exactly? I’m just a working stiff. I think I represent those who actually try every day to make the world a better place instead of those who get government handouts during the week and march to tear down the government on the weekends (ie, the Black Bloc idiots).

Although, with regards to the OP, I must contribute my personal observation that the anarchists we had in Vancouver during the Olympics were a pain in the butt, and didn’t produce anything like decent political theater - or a point of any kind. They just busted shit up. Dolts.
Rand Rover, I know that lately you’ve been super confused about what trolling is and genuinely interested in learning how to spot it so you be sure to avoid accidentally doing it yourself. To help you in your quest, I present a perfect example:
