Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The stones and molotovs of outrageous ratbags,
Or to take arms against a sea of hippies
And by walloping, bend them?

# that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outraged protestors,
Or to take arms against a sea of travellers,
And by opposing end them?

# You know your pig sticks
yep, you do, you do.

But in L.A. they're called (and I cringe to say this) "spade clubs"*

*See Rodney King and the riots. Biggest gang in L.A. are the police
