I don't get the similarities.

And in terms of one man's terrorist is another mans hero. I counter with the quote by I believe Lenin where he stated that the goal of terrorism was to terrorize. I also point to Stalin who plainly pointed out that terrorists were useful idiots.

That is your opinion and that was the point I am trying to make that a protest is like art.

The road I am going down is that many on here speak of these protesters with vile but may support another so as per my original message I feel that most hate the messanger because they hate the message.

Sometimes art is illegal and it is deemed as "wasteful attention whoring" and sometimes people see it as art, it is in the eye of the beholder.

You may hate one illegal protest and love another.
