The picture seen here is the mob taking to the streets in a direct march to Blizzard headquarters in Irvine to voice their complaints about the vast amount of noobs getting beta keys instead of loyal Brood War enthusiasts. WE'RE WAITING BLIZZARD   | ||

There are 12 million of them AND THEY ARE EVERYWHERE, EVEN IN GOOGLE NEWS. UCD had a protest like this today too! Fucking Blizzard man, making everyone involved in education angry. Makes sense since the majority of all UC campuses is Asian, we love our StarCraft. | ||

That's because students are angry, reckless people. In that incident about the middle eastern guy getting tazed at the UCLA library, the students sensationalized the shit out of that story. The issue is still a problem, just some of the students are being dumb about it. It's not their cause...it's our cause. They're just being stupid about it...we're not. | ||
