It's interesting that, without knowing the goals or intentions of anyone involved, so many immediately supported the action.
Action! Action!! Action!!!
I think Liza, Christian, and I need to do Activistism 2.0, for the era of social media. We can get real-time reports of arrests but nothing about strategy, tactics, or analysis.

^^^^^^^ CB: Yes, of course, it is not correct to publically disclose all strategy and tactics, because the enemy will find out about it.
