Adam: Not on your knee!

Jim: Why do you like the black shamrock campaign
Adam: I do tae kwon do which is self defence and black shamrock campaign is about trying to defend the innocent people who are being bombed.
Jim: So what do you want to say about where to wear the black shamrock badges?
Adam: The common black shamrock badges work well on your trousers at the side of your knee, on your t-shirt, on your shoulder or on your chest.
Jim: How many do you like to wear at a time?
Adam: Five is good.
Jim: Where shouldn't you wear them?
Adam: Not on your knee but wait a second it would work well on a hat wouldn't it? Yes very well. If you are protesting it would work exceptionally well!
Jim: Do you think its enough to wear the badge or do you have to do anything else to protest at the use of Shannon for refuelling?
Adam: Yes I do think its enough but you can do more if you want.
Jim: Have you any ideas about what we could do?
Adam: You could make your own badges or stuff.
Jim: That's a cool idea. We always though that the bought badges were just to inspire other people to make badges or paint black shamrocks in places.
Adam: I've had another idea, you could get a plain t-shirt and paint a black shamrock on it, not plain black though.
Jim: Funny enough we made some black shamrock t-shirts to sell and raise money and they were all black t-shirts but we painted a white circle with the centre of the circle left blank in the shape of a shamrock.
Adam: Ok I need to go now and make some more smileys.
Jim: Thanks Adam. Thanks for the support and for getting involved in Mercedes' "infect the world with smiles campaign" as well. So if you meet someone without a smile give them one of yours!
