Protests at Bay Walk

Am I missing something? People are protesting the War in Iraq--BUT they are protesting in front of Bay Walk. Why are they doing it there? Why don't they go to the Pentagon, or the White House? Why don't they protest in front of the Recruting stations? What is so special about Bay Walk that they think their protests will be heard better THERE?

Do they think that the people they are inconveniencing will then submit a Bill in Congress that will stop the War? Or do they think that one of the businesses will take up a petition and contact their Legislators on their behalf? I find it very strange. Am I the only one?
