Allen,

We already had a MMM here, except it was the Million Moon March in protest
to a freshman at the local high school who was expelled for the rest of the
year for mooning one of his team mates on the track field who at the time
was getting chewed out by the coach.  It worked as the young mooner was
reinstated after about two weeks.
