Thank you Gael for you're efforts to de-escalate the situation. It's difficult to keep cool in such situations, but I think critical for the public to see Codepink members taking the higher ground by not physically or emotionally engaging abusive pro-war hecklers.
It is a strategy that was very effective in the 1960 sit-in movement when sit-in protesters actively took physical and verbal abuse, but garnered emotional support from the larger public because of their respectful, nonviolent response.
