The accompanying text provides some interesting caveats to the images. Notably, reporting is more common and available, and one cannot distinguish what is being protested (OWS and Tea Party protests count the same).

Not every. There were some MAJOR anti-income tax protests in Nashville in the early 2000’s that didn’t show up at all.

How is Phil Valentine anyway? :^)

I think the only optimists looking at these are the weapons manufacturers.
Of course, the other reason it looks like this is the massive growth of communications by the “Little People”.
Ping for your info. Enjoy ?

What the hell is going on in Wichita? Protest of the Month, every month? That is the most striking thing about this map to my eye.

Kansas - That's the 'go-to' pointer for non-city/state specific protest. Go read the story.

Thanks. Be darned, haven’t heard of it. I will never forgive Jane Fonda for two things, we all know what the first one was, the second was how that bitch wrecked the nuclear power industry with her dumb China Syndrome movie in the 70s.
