In trying to imagine the reaction should US protesters
place a guillotine in a public street, I imagined many protesters would be rounded up, jailed, and charged with terrorism. Seriously.
A Cabinet secty would not be appearing to discuss new transportation plans!
FOX News would be going crazy condemning the violent nature of the display, while the other MCMers, NPR, pols would be bemoaning the lack of civility.
Talk bout yer clear message!
If London protestors/rioters made t-shirts with that image, it's a message even/especially Versailles would understand.
