"An innovative new tactic in civil resistance is the Smart Mob (Flash Mob), wherein a smaller group of activists is covertly dispatched to stage a coordinated creative action at a specific public or semi-public location within a comparatively brief window of time. The advantages of this tactic, used in support of the ongoing Occupy actions, would be that would allow the temporary occupancy of a larger territory of the social and physical landscape."

Thanks, but the real genius will be with the creative people who pull them off, and then hopefully youtube them. I was told people have started doing some though now, that some group was controlling traffic in NYC using the method. The person who told me saw it on a live stream and now I'm looking for the video to share on my site. I guess it was rad :))))

You are a genius!

Yeah, make it like the ones at the WI State Fair!!!

OWS need to use tactics like the black flash mobs!

Anyone have a video of those people controlling traffic with a ows flash mob the other day?

exactly, expand out from the parks to every corner of the towns and cities, even if just for a brief moment :)
