Dan,
"Sorry if i dissagree with u tom. I firmly believe WE NEED TO HAVE A POSITIVE PRESSENCE
AWAY FROM THE TMT PROTESTERS"
Please don't shout. I agree that counter protests in areas away from the TMT protesters is just fine and I encourage that. However, let's assume the protests occur on the Saddle Road at the summit access road access point. There will be journalists there as well and as I'm sure you understand, they will be looking for stories. If a counter-protest occurs there and the Saddle Road ends up being closed, then not only will the current observatories be affected, so will everyone else who uses the Saddle road including those who commute to work between the east and west side of the island. If that happens, there is every chance the counter-protesters will be portrayed by some in the media as the cause of people not being able to work.
