But Washington is different. People who live and work here wouldn’t likely respond well to New York-style occupation tactics, nor have local police followed the lead of their New York brethren in dealing with occupiers. This city is well-accustomed to protest, just as it knows what it takes to make policy. A good balance of tactics and strategies would yield more results than just yelling more loudly and being more disruptive, as Smith seems to have wanted.
