Subject: Re: Bob Welch: Anarchists' stance ironic


Well, by now you have probably read the response that I sent Bob. Which I
hope you all agree was the nicest way of saying "Get a clue, Bob" that I
could come up with. And yes, I did complement him on some of his writing. I
mean, let's face it, the article did say some things that weren't all
bad.....
such as:


"To its credit, the movement is asking good questions about a society
that's hell-bent on materialism."
and
"DID THE COPS go too far? At times, yes, judging from the nine-minute
video I saw and the testimonies I heard."

Those are statements that are at least sympathetic. It seems almost like Bob
is almost unhappy about having to write the other parts of his article....

A far cry from balanced, but certainly not one sided, I give this article
two stars....
