So what are you saying, you can't be an "ordinary person" if you
demonstrate?


No doubt some demonstrators are "ordinary" people but, I firmly believe,

the
vast majority of "ordinary" people do not demonstrate - ever.

Hear hear. I agree totally with you! Quite frankly it is wishful thinking to
try to argue that the "anti-war" feeling was that strong. Given the total
population of the UK, I do not recall the country grinding to a halt in a
way it would have done so, had most of its adult population joined a
demonstration. There are other ways of expressing opinions to parading in
the streets.

Thanks, Robert.
