^ you underestimate the circumstances of the current generation of protesters. They have been trashed on the economic scrap pile since entering the workforce, not had jobs having a pick of vocations like the boomers. Their income opportunities and prospects are vastly inferior to the hippy's generation. I don't know how it ends but it's not going to be like a love-in winding up with flashbacks, hangovers and pregnancies being the biggest of their worries. It's pretty hard getting people to go back to nothing.
Raz from CHAZ is their new leader. He's a gun-toting rap artist ... doesn't sound like Ben and Jerry or Tim Leary.
