I’m shocked that I haven’t seen one protest yet. Is the media suppressing them? If there aren’t any, why?

    Because the Americans don’t know how to protest.

    To a Frenchman a protest is storming and taking control of the representation of authority in the country.

    To a Greek a protest is filling the streets of many cities throughout the country with hundreds of thousands of people.

    To an American a protest involves standing in a square by the few hundreds, holding signs with semi-sarcastic or passive aggressive messages written on them.
