Mostly, large protests are conducted by people who don't live there. Just like the DNC is mainly from other parts of the country, the protesters would be too. So, I don't think it really has much to do with what the local city wants. Not sure I would characterize what will happen as a "riot" or a "protest", but large organized protests are on the rise largely due to the momentum Occupy Movement, so I would count on that theme carrying over to many other areas in the near future. Especially since the conservative side of the country now has to show that they also can "pull an occupy off". -Cameron ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:348417 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
