no idea, but i'd sure like to see something somewhere from someone that says what these protests are accomplishing. all i see right now are many people upset about the perceived disrespect towards the flag and veterans, and many people who support the idea of protesting to raise awareness of mistreatment towards african-americans in our society. okay, awareness has certainly been raised, but what is it accomplishing? is racism, whether personal or institutional, being affected anywhere by all of this?
