7. Intimidation, pure and simple.
They throw you in jail, charge you with a felony, scare you half to death, and force you to spend a bunch of money on legal representation. So even if they eventually drop the charges, they figure next time maybe you won't be inclined to protest because you don't want to go through that again.
I guess in DUmmyland, throwing urine and bleach in the faces of Republican delegates is a positive social exercise that should be admired.
I really wish I could have been there. The first commie-activist-tree hugger-meth head that threw bleach at me would receive 250 grains of hot lead between the eyes.
