Anyone can do anything including placard waving, and each suffers the consequences of their actions and inactions.
I reserve the right to my opinions and the right for you to hold yours.
Yours are no more valid than mine, and vice versa.
GN is a useful site to share, offer and discuss, agree and disagree, sympathise and criticise and each of us 'talks' in our own way, which is good, as long as we don't single out individual members to be the butt of jibes or 'gang up' on someone who posts a different view.
IMO, raising one's voice in order to be noticed (as advocated in one post) is not a good idea, nor is placard waving but I repeat, it's entirely up to the individual.
My ways are not your ways and, if we all agreed on every subject, we'd have nothing to discuss.
