The gym. The pride parade. Some people should not go to protests. In card games, it's often best to save your best cards for last, when your opponents can least resist. Or at least, save them for when they are most crucial. I read recently about how Russian spec-ops forces (the truly best of the best) have been absolutely devastated because they keep sending them to the frontline to die for inches of breadth. I'm not spec ops, but I don't go to protests for a different reason.
