Anti-War Protestors

Have you seen the BU anti-war protestors on the news this week? They filed a complaint yesterday against the Vestal Police Department for using excessive and/or unnecessary force. Always remember, having the right to speak is not the same thing as having the right to be heard.

There's a song by Five Iron Frenzy ,about this sort of thing, called "Go and Get Your Riot Gear."

This is my favorite verse,

"It is written on your badge,
'To serve and protect',
It seemed you only served yourselves,
Protecting your own neck.
Controlling with fear, menacing and threatening.
You want my respect?
You better start respecting me."

I reccomend listening to it.
