Dress for Duress

There are news reports that downtown Chicago office workers are being encouraged to treat "NATO Monday" as Logo-Free Casual Day:
Some workers have been asked to dress down so protesters won't target them, according to Crain's Chicago Business. Security staffs reportedly even told employees to avoid wearing anything with corporate logos.
Actually, I've seen reports that a lot of today's fashionable anarchists come to protest in dark-hued duds with designer labels. They're anti-corporate, but they wear the right brands. It's almost as if a lot of them are bored rich kids, afflicted with guilt over inheriting trust funds.

I'm predicting that the protests here are being vastly over-hyped.

Perhaps that day, just for yucks,
I could go to work in a tux.
