I'm not so sure, violence seems to follow these people around at their rallies. 220 people were arrested by the police this weekend in NY and those images of Seattle will never clear from my mind.
As far as being spotted around the country, agreed. I will say this, for being so spotty we can make a noise when we need to! BTW - I'm not worried about being spotty. I'd rather see 50 people at 100 venues around the country than 5000 people at one.
We have had about 25 Freeps since 9/11, I agree that the chance of violence goes up with the numbers involved. We have always been out numbered, thousands to one on several occasions, two incedences of violence, ome of them ond a passer bye.
This is not to say that we haven't had a near riot condition on several occasions, but until we can gt all the lurkers to claim their spot, better 50 here and 50 there.
