Protesting is alive and well in the U.S, but you only get serious network time if there is violence associated. Regardless of whether or not the mainstream media deigns to turn their cameras in your direction, I highly recommend everyone do at least one good protest in their lives. Protests are one of the purest forms of democracy in action, and you become an active part of history in the making.
