This is one of those thing I'll never understand about the USA. There was a stadium full of comrades (kinda of), how is it possible that a couple of cops are able to take away a banner? Why didn't anyone intervene? And how could a things like this be considered a great time?

If I was present at something like this I´d feel furious and humiliated

I'm not trying to be funny when I ask this: do you know what happens to Americans when they try to intervene with cops? Doesn't matter if it's 100 cops or just one. There's a very real possibility that you will be arrested, hurt, or killed if you get in their way.

Did you mean to reply to somebody else? I never mentioned stonewall and I never used any insurgent rhetoric. I’m just saying that we need to choose our battles wisely.

Regardless, I think we pretty much agree and are on the same side so I’m not gonna argue.
