Go to Post GP is a much longer-term investment, yet offers surprisingly high returns. Just like 401(k) plans, the important thing is to keep making contributions even when it seems there's no reward for it. - ayeckley [more]

Re: pic: More protestors...

A few thoughts here - one could contact that school and find out what that demonstration was about. If you would like, pm me and I'll give you some leads as to how to go about it. That would provide enough information as to if it was a mock demo or real.

Secondly, the campus police came while the demonstration was in process, which tells me the group did not have this cleared with the school in advance -

Thirdly, in the other picture one of the people is wearing a wedding band, and as seen here the young woman is dressed for a business day, and as someone in this thread stated they are sharing the 'my sister' poster. Also that poster is small and simple. During protests on campus, graphic details are given out with issues involving harm and loss of life. I would venture a guess that these are graduate students doing a project for a class or organization. The binary is for shock to see just who gets it and it is also just plain rude.

Just in my office here at UT, we have hosted 2 different RTF groups who needed access to a law office environ. (One was a horror movie with fake blood and everything) The lead producer had to come present their project, obtain permission from me and from our director, make arrangements for time, set up, clean up, etc. It was a two week process.

If this group is doing this for a project, the polite thing would have been for one of them to approach a mentor on the way to the bus and let you know what was going on. It appears they were going for 'shock' value and for filming their own involvement. You can see their photographer, perhaps for their student newspaper. It's fun to diss and talk about but try not to get upset about it. That's an .02
