Keeping bars open longer for the RNC

The reason that no one mentions protesters in the 4AM bar consideration, is
that all St Paul hotel space is reserved for the RNC attendees, so protesters
will be probably be staying with friends throughout the cites.
While 70% of the American people are mad at this Republican party leadership
and everything it stands for, it would be hard to characterize protesters in
any one way. I would expect peacemakers to be a significant portion of the
"Making America Better" vision that protesters share. The peacemakers that I
know come from many religious based social justice groups, which are the
opposite of "drinking" communities. I, myself, haven grown up in Wisconsin,
have experienced the fellowship of bars when young. As I grew older, I am more
inclined to the dinner with friends type of socialization. So based on location
and the culture of ethically based protest, I would totally discount protesters
in making counts for keeping open St Paul bars.
Maybe if we offered 20% discount peacemaker cards, we could draw more business?
