(99,710 posts)I was reading a discussion about whether shining lasers into their eyes is a violation of law. There was no clear answer. It's certainly provocative.

(22,006 posts)Might be worth a try. But I think they are going to intentionally insert themselves
into crowds or gatherings just to agitate.

(411 posts)compose a beautiful song that protesters can sing. We are in a very dangerous moment. They are hoping we will become violent.
We need to stand together and sing. Pete Seeger wrote We Shall Overcome, I sang it in many marches and it helped. Maybe Pete already wrote the the song we need. I still love Pete.

This Land is Your Land would be a good one.
The earlier protest songs were really good.
Maybe an updated version of the Kingston Trio's, "where have all the young men gone"?
"where has our democracy gone?
Long time passing,
Where has our democracy gone
We had it not long ago>"

(411 posts)Way back because of the Vietnam war, I marched up and down the streets of SF with a sweet lady who was 80 years old.
We marched to a field in Golden Gate Park. You had to walk through a tunnel to get there. We were all singing Petes song ... when you made it to the huge green grass field, Crosby Stills and Nash were singing.
That is something his goons cant fight. We do really need good trouble at this point..we need to step it up.

Save it for the Election. When they mobilize, we'll have to strike fast to save Democracy.
