a comment on the show;

The purpose of civil disobedience is to upset the status quo and wake up the public to act. It is "moral jujitsu". No longer will the real "death panels" i.e. the for profit health insurance companies, be able to conduct business as usual because we are putting the spot light on them. We, as Obama has said: "are calling them out." Not everybody should be arrested at the same time. Some have to call the media and serve as media spokespersons. Some have to serve as photographers and videograghers to document the event for the court proceedings. Some are there to "peacefully assemble for the redress of greviances." to witness and give another pressence to the for profit insurance companies, the press and the public. I suggest you start by reading the works of Gandi, Dr. Martin Luther King, GeneSharp,George Lakeyand the late William Moyer(not the PBS guy) in his book "Doing Democracy", to understand what David Swanson and others are doing and why.
