So..... What is protest actually FOR, then, my dears?

What purpose does it serve?

What goals might it succeed in acheiving that could not be acheived through other routes?

What's the big idea, wise guy?

And how would the answers to the above questions affect WHO and WHERE one protests, my sweets?

MOST interested in your inputs.
