There are currently so many pro Palestinian protests around the world, including here in

I just saw a T-shirt with this printed on it.

"Support the country you live in or live in the country you support"

I'm unsure about your definition of protest success & I wonder how many dead constitutes success in your book.

Individual,

Your comments are as useful as a barbershop of
the steps of a guillotine.

Where Indy? At the local Bovver Boys meeting you were attending.

I like that Foxy, barbershop - guillotine.

Anything that disturbs the status quo can be considered a protest. A letter to a newspaper, a gathering in the street, a meeting of the like minded, they are all examples of protest. Protests can be bloody and dangerous for those taking part, look at Myanmar, if it wasn't for popular protest in that country the world's attention would not be focused on the unjust situation there, and the military junta would be getting away with what they are doing without interference.

Conservative Politian's and their supporters don't like protest, they know protest can lead to questioning of the status quo and that can lead to change, something they oppose!

Thanks for this thread, it makes for a good discussion.

barber shop guillotine & Bovver Boys.
Foxy & Paul1405,
Going by the antics in Palestine over the past 1400 or so years I'd say the bovver boys & the guillotine have proven to be the lesser evil thus far.
