The Boston Tea Party ia an excellent example. Yes I am serious, You don’t think we have a right to reress our grievances to the government. Have you not heard of civil disobedience, sit ins, boycotts and marches are all part of the long history of American protests.

You think publicity stunts make for successful protests? From which history book are you reading? Laura feels so superior here because not even Laura believes she has a chance to get an audience with the PM of Iraq. Oh, and let’s not forget – she snuck into the gallery with a democratic congresman’s pass. That’s above-the-board! NOT!

Again, I’m incredulous at your comment about citizens and “peace” activists getting audiences with PMs of other countries. I cannot believe you’re serious.

Technically heckling would mean Medea would have been interacting or yelling in response. So she is correct. This was clearly a publicity stunt which most succesful political protests are. I don’t understand why Laura feels so superior here. A peace activist and American citizen tries to get an audience with the Prime Minister of a country we are occupying is a legitimate and non violent thing to do.
I don’t want to be a troll here. From what I’ve seen from the few posts I’ve checked out the tone is more reasonable. I’d like to get a dialogue going.
