I get the feeling that there’s a story behind that one. Now I really want to hear the story.

The story is that it was a fake protest staged by EA for publicity.

Sounds really dull when I put it like that…

some are pretty good, but some of them are actually important, like the Tea Party ones, the media wants to make them into a joke but what they fail to see, no what they dont want you to see is the screwy stuff the government is doing,  
like Grayson from Florida, a Democrat congressman who in the spring was slinging bile at anyone he could is now crying and demanding a woman be fined and jailed because she doesnt agree with his agenda, this country is being torn apart by a bunch of halfwits with agendas, I seriously doubt that we will recognize this country in 50 years. hell make that 10 years.

That’s democracy (and life) for you. We as humans, will always have different views.
