Hey Cecil...
imagine bumping into you here... amazing...

One thing civil disobedience does is force the issue
out into wider consciousness, putting it out there for the
public to begin making their own decisions on it. It is not just protest, but protest taken to the next level. I tend to believe it might be necessary and justified in some cases. The perpetrators risk punishment; that which may even be "fair" to some extent. My thing is... I don't mind if people judge the issue itself which is brought to life, but it irritates me when the whole effort is dismissed simply because some rules were broken...

That's kinda my take on it...

anyway, I think it might be time for a drink...
yeah, I think so.
