However, I do think we have to realize where the movement is right now and think about the appropriate types of action. All I am asking you to grant me is that there are better types of action in a given situation than others...I should have known better than use the word "stage", so please let's not get hung up on that word. What kind of street actions are you referring to? My stage 2 refers to taking "permanent" political control of an area....not just having a demonstration that occupies an area, then everybody goes home....same goes for a rave. -Thomas --- rcam <rcollins-AT-netlink.com.au> wrote: > Thomas, > > I think those who think we are at > : stage > : 2, ready to take control, need to do a reality > check. > > "Stage 2" being taking control of space.
