[*BCM*] Re: Bostoncriticalmass Digest, Vol 34, Issue 2

[John Hays]

    Critical Mass has always been "political" in the broad sense, and 
has certainly been political in the narrow sense of favoring or opposing 
particular political figures or parties. The unusually massive NYC 
Critical Mass on the eve of the Republican National Convention - 
expressly attended by many of the extra thousands who were in NYC at the 
time as an anti-RNC protest - is a prime example.

    I would encourage anyone that supports the Paul Revere/impeachment 
idea to voluntarily choose to participate w/ it during the next ride by 
getting in costume, wearing a sign, or shouting the name of the website. 
Anybody who prefers NOT to do it can just not do those things. Seems 
simple enough.
