NAFTA Begins To Widespread Protest:
However the NAFTA is not without its critics, and hundreds of thousands of protestors have gathered near the site of the summit, angry at the impact of the agreement on manufacturing jobs within the US and the environmental impact of increased trade. Additionally, anti-capitalist protestors [sic] are also thought to be in attendance.
They didn’t mention that the protest clowns are also in attendance; although, there is likely considerable overlap between the clowns and the anti-capitalists. We don’t know if these are the same clowns seen squatting and vandalizing property near Heathrow this past weekend. This picture reinforces our opinion that clowns are creepy.
