uh, I don't know fellas, I think the connotation of 'peaceful protest' is pretty obvious...I'd say there's some misdirected quibbling going on here.
Which kind of brings me back to what rb was trying to get at, and that is - is the issue this specific Greenpeace event or the idea of protest as a legitimate form of political action?
I'd guess the results of a poll on this thread to be about 50/50.
