Reply #126: How many of the recent protests have you been to?

Sometimes I imagine possibilities in my mind that are not necessarily accurate. Unless something radically different happens this time there should be no major problems. This is not a confrontational, hardcore IMF, WTO type protest. The police will be there, FBI videotaping, etc, and there may be a few skirmishes with hardcore activists, but this has happened at most recent large antiwar protests. If my kids were young they'd be coming too unless weather, accomodations or something like that made it a poor decision. They're older and will come on their own (except my 9th grade daughter who will come with us.

Mostly the protests are festive and the cops are for the most part enjoying the overtime and talking with people.
