Posted By: blip Posted On: Sep 20, 2007 Views: 667 | RE: our government sucks I was noticing the other day that the internet seems to have spurred a decline in activism. Instead of people marching on Washington, they sit around at a computer, digitally ranting about how much they'd like to march on Washington; and thousands of people will echo the sentiments, and, having got the complaint off their chest, go back to living ordinary status quo lives. So how can somebody be asked to do something when nobody will do it with them? |

Posted On: Sep 20, 2007 Views: 654 | RE: our government sucks You got to stop thinking about everyone else, just put a little time into whatever cause you'd like to support even if you're the only one, even if you have little or no effect, the point is you're trying. The reality is that no one is going to do anything for you. And yeah, stop whining on the internet. |
Posted By: um Posted On: Sep 20, 2007 Views: 653 | RE: RE: our government sucks I don't want to march anywhere. I have bad arches so my feet hurt if I walk around a lot. I might be interested in a march if were all done on Segways and I would not be gone too long. I have to get the lawn mowed. Does anyone really pay any attention to protest marches really? The last one I remember was when all the illegal aliens protested. I thought that was a bit odd since they can't vote. Maybe if lobbyists held a march the government would listen. |

Posted By: idea Posted On: Sep 21, 2007 Views: 642 | RE: our government sucks The idea is a march that people would listen to, like the good old days of massive demonstration, sit-ins, boycott and other whatnot. Being a nuisance. Armed insurrection works too. |
