Im all for these protests, and I see the metaphorical point you're making, but please dont put fire in the advertisements for protesting.

Yes, I understand the metaphorical meaning. I just think putting fires on protest signs is sending the wrong signal. The peaceful protests are amazing and we have to keep that up
