Fast Food Protest

Views on Act
Most of my family members are supportive of what I'm doing. My parents are very supportive they think that its a great idea because in the long run its not worth eating fast food even if it's cheaper because it is so bad for your body. My siblings aren't as supportive they really like fast food and because they have high metabolisms they don't think that its doing anything bad for their bodies. My friends are supportive but they think that I should just make fast food restaurants sell healthier food instead of just shutting them down.
My life
My life has changed a lot since I started my protest. People are starting to recognize me and some of them even laugh when they see me. I guess to some people I might seem a bit crazy or strange. Now sometimes when I go outside I wear a hat or over my head in a scarf, for a bit of a disguise because I don't feel like having people ask me questions. Since the protest I seem to have less friends, some of them got really embarrassed to be seen with me.
What did I achieve?
Through my acts I've raised awareness about the fast food industry. I have received a lot of publicity since I by accident burned down one of the local MacDonald's. Sadly even though I received a lot of publicity I was not able to accomplish my goal in making a law forbidding fast food chains. I didn't change or make any laws but I did raise a lot of awareness about fast food. I hope that I got through to some people and made their lives healthier.
Mcdonalds
Unfortunately I have some bad news I was sent to jail on January 11, 2011 for a week. On December 24 I spent the day protesting at one of the local McDonald's as the day wore on it started to get cold so we started a bonfire in the parking lot. After a few hours I went to one of the near by restaurants to get some dinner and left the bonefire unattented thinking that nothing would happend. But when I came back the Mcdonald's store was in flames.Thankfully no one died or was injured but I was sent to court the following day. I was the one who was in charge and started the fire so then on the 11th I was sent to jail. As well as going to jail I have to pay for a new Mcdonald's store to be rebuilt.
My Methods
What are my methods?
My methods are to get people to join my organization and so I can raise awareness about what fast food can really do to your body. Once I get a lot of people to join my organization then I can go to Court and try to get fast food stores baned or at least make them more healthy. But until people join my organization (BFF) I can't do much. In the mean time I'm giving lectures and leading protest to let people know the truth about what they're eating. Hopefully I will get people to join my organization so then I can really make an impact.

BFF
In order to help my cause I've started an organization called BFF (banning fast food).
I went with my organization BFF to one of the local Burger King stores. We stood outside the store for 5 hours then when we were into own 6th hour we got chased away by the manager. We told the consumers going into Burger King what was really in the food that they were eating as well as what it was doing to their bodies. Which made most of the consumers change there minds and go to a healthier restaurants. We also had a petition to ban fast food stores and collected many signatures.

Fast Food
I'm protesting against fast food, I think that fast food should be baned because it's very bad for the human immune system it causes people to gain more weight, raises the chance of them getting a heart attack, and having an early death. If we ban fast food we will have less chance of people getting obese and more chance of them living a healthier life.
In order to get fast food baned I went to many different school in the Vancouver area and talked to the kids about healthy eating and exercising.I showed the kids how bad fast food is for them and showed them healthier options that taste just as good. I also got some of the kids to join my organization BFF (banning fast food). Were going to lead protest against fast food and waise awareness about how bad it is.
