I'm not a big fan of demonstrations, but they can be effective.

As an example, an American prisoner of war in North Vietnam once said that a North Vietnamese officer told him that the Communists would win the Vietnam War on the streets of New York--and they did.

In addition, if you read all the way through the article to which your post is linked, you will notice that the Bonus Army eventually got its bonus.

Did you miss the part where Hoover called out the Army and SHOT THE FREAKING DEMONSTRATORS?

Someone is passing out stupid pills around here, I swear to God....
