Barrel Organ Protest

Each year he adds one more organ. This year there were four and they all played out of tune to maximize the annoyance factor.

  2. Do you remember when Noriega was holed up in the Vatican Embassy in Panama and the US military played rock music around the clock at full volume until he surrendered?
