People seem really divided on the issue. I read in a paper today, that some fathers group has came out and said it was irresponsible.

But I thought it was inspired. I'm generally against 99% of protests, because they make someone else's life a misery (some poor innocent citizen). Protests should hurt the government, not ordinary members of the public. I think that is drastically unfair. I was against the crane stunt because of that. But here is a protester, that doesn't hurt anyone. No innocent members of the public, no police, nothing. It raised awareness. It was the perfect protest IMO.
