37. Agree w/ some others above: we've HAD huge protests; but
1. Police have spied on activists in advance in order to successfully round up and detain huge numbers of them early in the game, thus throttling protest during the last two RNC conventions;

2. The media grossly under-reports them.

3. Until recently, most of us were working too hard to devote more than a day here and there. THAT seems to be changing, however . . .
