    Feel free to stop replying to me then.

    I have made some concrete suggestions in this thread:

    1. street actions that are more emotionally powerful and less adversarial, and I've given you examples.
    1. Passing out educational flyers in front of recruitment offices (not just in Berkeley)
    1. Trying to go speak to at-risk kids at schools where they might be more vulnerable to recruiter messages.

    If you don't think those suggestions will work, feel free to explain why, but don't just dismiss them as "handwringing."

    I would appreciate it if you'd provide some evidence that Code Pink is actually changing anybody's minds or persuading anybody outside of the Bay Area of their point of view. The fact that you haven't speaks volumes.

      You can't make an omelet without breaking eggs.  MLK was inflammatory.
