Spitting can be an art.....sometimes technique is required....some are better than others at it.....but for most of us it comes right back and hits us in the eye..... 
Like every cause or protest that has ever started, as soon as you appease the leaders of said cause with a bribe or a job, or anything else, the protests, marches, or whatever else you want to call them, stops as if it never started. All is forgotten because one or two pockets are filled.
PN stopped the greennies from entering punta catalina area today:
