      My curiosity led to some research and… I couldn’t find any major student protests in the 1990s. Which I guess is the end goal. I did join protests in 2002, and I remember not having an ounce of fear that there would be pro-war nuts driving through them or that the police would show up with surplus military equipment to wage war on people for shouting things in a place others would prefer they didn’t.

        There were major protests, though. I participated in ACT UP, and the WTO protest n Seattle. There were anti-Gulf War protests, protests over US actions in Central and South America, and many campus-closing protests. I even took part in one, where we occupied the admin building and shut it down over tuition hike plans.

            China still made it into the WTO
