I wasn't sure it was the right choice at first, but I now realize it was brilliant.

Has (co-located) counter protesting ever been generally useful?

I think with social media and how quickly images can get around switching to a less centralized way of protesting, especially something that is so widespread across your culture. It’s not just one specific thing or person can actually be a really beneficial strategy. It’s not just about disrupting the work of law makers and getting on the big three news at night it’s about going viral and the more citiesthat protest the more opportunities you have to make that happen. It’s about making protesting, go viral literally.
