But if someone has a viable “peaceful” solution to this problem - I would love to hear it ....
As far as the trash problem goes, I’m sure things were not planned out as well as any had hoped, but it is up to the organizers of such events to make sure that all the resources they need available to them (including having more trash dumpsters) are requested of the city. But just saying that people litter and not addressing that problem isn’t exactly the way to go. I mean if people came with signs and posters and stuff to the march, why could they not take them home and toss them in their own garbage? But when the rally was over you just toss it on the street for someone else to clean up and pretend like its no big deal is just plain disrespectful.
My 2cents.

As far as making the choice of whats a lesser evil, Id rather pick up someone else's dead body than my own..... really I would. I know im gonna get flamed for saying this too. The way I see it, the whole war thing, Al Queda, Saddam, Iraq.... These folks have tried several times to cut the lifeline that keeps america running. Why bomb the WTC you ask? hmmmmm, what happens when America cant do business, capitolism fails..inflation, yadda yadda yadda ...the government that keeps us from being murdered goes bye bye. What would have happened had saddam succeded in burning ALL the oil wells that the we use completely dry? well, no more shipping crops around different parts of the country here thats for sure. Luckily though, we have this thing called a military (some of which still suffer from gulf war syndrome for those of you who think the chemical weapons inspection is bullshit) that happens to be willing to go in and beat the snot out of people until either they submit ! or can no longer threaten MY way of life. GO RED, WHITE AND BLUE! Now I know this is the land of the free and the home of the brave, which is why I dont have a problem with people protesting, but if they're gonna do it, they should have the common sense to not be hipocrites, be able to show respect to the downtown area instead of destroying, tagging and plain ol' mucking things up for the rest of us. I just think people should practice what they preach.
