Honestly the soup can thing is like a perfect protest.

It didn't damage the painting, was disruptive, and got lots of attention brought to the cause.


If you need to be disruptive for your message to be heard, maybe your message isn't worth hearing about in the first place.

Simple solution, don't stop your car for protests.
They will learn not to stand on a highway soon enough.


This isn't realistic. Nobody wants to be charged with manslaughter/murder.

Just throw used tampons or garbage at the protesters. Very soon they will change their way.

What if the sheep have too much wool over their ears to hear the message otherwise?

That's pretty short sighted. Basically just dooms all messages that aren't in line with the main stream media to never getting heard.

So you want to litter and spread biological hazards. Sounds illegal and disruptive.

Not really.

If your message is worth hearing about, say it once in a reasoned manner, and people will be swayed.

In fact I think you have a criminal-leaning mind. You keep thinking violence and chaos are needed in a political protest.

Putting a negative spin on things. I see what you are doing.

So if *I* do something disruptive, it's bad. But when protesters do it, it's fine.

I never said I absolutely have to throw tampons at people. I am just trying to come up with ways to discourage people from disrupting other people's lives.

You are advocating littering and illegally assaulting somebody with biological hazards to silence their political speech.
