1. He would be standing with them. In fact, he'd probably have been
pepper sprayed, beat in the face, and hauled off to jail already.

3. I agree.
I think that he would be there, handing out "food for thought." Segments of the police would target him. Fox News would carry a report on his arrest, pointing out the "threat" his type pose to the power structure.

2. "You guys need to get angry once in a while."
"Even I kicked ass at the Temple, and I'm Jesus, for My sakes!"

6. Jesus is right on this.
However, if the protesters get angry and "fight" It will give them the excuse they are looking for to shut it down. Must remain peaceful, even if Jesus is pissed.

and the longer it remains peaceful, the better. Coz when it turns....................fucking chaos.

5. 'Throw out the moneychangers!'
OK, bad analogy, seeing that Wall Street is hardly a 'temple' & all, but I couldn't resist.

7. He'd Be Walking into Banks and Financial Institutions
and trashing up the place. After all he over turned the tables of the money changers
so I expect he wouldn't be too leery of some rough and tumble.
