Lesson 1: When planning a protest in which those one is protesting outnumber the protester by several to one, and also one in which those being protested against has the weight and force of government, arrange for video documentation to be created to support the subsequent account.
Lesson 2: Be prepared for things to go against your best laid plans.
Lesson 3: Do not protest in a way that turns casual observers or otherwise disinterested witnesses into non-sympathetic parties.
Lesson 4: Only do this with the full knowledge and support of those that love you the most. Do not surprise them too.
Lesson 5: Be prepared to accept the full cost and punishment that may be meted out for your actions.
Lesson 6: Before doing anything, get competent legal advice and representation. Do what they say.
I do admire the spunk and determination of the protester. I also agree with the premise of what is being protested.
Good idea. Poor execution.
