Perhaps the protesters are truly legitimate, but I get a "Fair Play for Cuba" vibe that makes me very uncomfortable and fearful.

that doesn't mean everyone with a grievance should be considered harmless. There are more than enough wackos in our society that even sincere protesters have to be viewed with caution.

Of course, if they did this at a Trump rally they might get barbecued and eaten. Those folks are a bit more devolved than Hillsters and Berniacs.

Amazing. I hope you don't truly believe that, but I fear you do.
If so, you have my sympathies.
