you'd have to ask them where they bought/got their gear.
the point of this whole thread is, if i'm not mistaken, not what the message is, but it's about the messenger having to right to deliver said message. it really is of NO CONSEQUENCE what the protested issue is, it is a basic civil liberty to speak out and speak up. whether or not the protesters are hypocrites of their cause and wasting their own time is not of my concern. when they are attacked for doing so, i get worried. our freedom as a whole is my concern, and i see it being slowly and methodically stripped away. next they're wanting our guns, those of us that still excersise that right. if they take those away, that's our last physical defense. that's when police state will have new meaning for us.
how is it that we are 'free' if we have to ask 'if' we can protest anything? because, as you know, those permits can be and are often denied.
asking for a permit to protest oppression is kind of ridiculous, wouldn't you say?
the more we limit what people can say, and where they can say it, the more freedom we lose as a society.
the politically correct movement really fucked things up, imo.
this here 'freedom' is costing us dearly.
