Protesters

Protesters are like 2 year old's. They kick and scream and yell until they get what they want. It seems as though there is a protest against everything. They're always marching down Main Street in the middle of the day.

And while there is a time, place and reason for protesting, not all are good and productive.

My first thought is.........don't you people have jobs? Why not assemble prior to 8am or after 5pm? Is it that you are you still shaking that dank hangover off and can't peel yourself out of your hammock, or are you busy manning up in front of Whole Foods every evening speaking hippie with the employees.

When our 2 year old's kick, scream and throw tantrums because they want to play with scissors, we ignore them until they stop. Giving in just reinforces them to do it again and again until they get what they want.

Just like society does with protesters.
