Protesting with poop

Story
Quote:
A Portland woman accused of spreading dog feces at Deering Oaks Park as part of a vendetta against its weekly farmer's market has been banned from the park and charged with criminal mischief.

Lora Leland, 53, was caught early Saturday emptying 16 bags of dog feces in the road that winds through the center of the park, police said. She explained that she was angry at the Saturday morning farmer's market because it interfered with her ability to ride her bicycle through the park, police said.
Whatever happened to good old-fashioned picketing?

Probably went the way of good old fashioned sharing the sidewalk with others.

How long does it take to collect 16 bags of dog poop and where do you store it while you're collecting it?
