Going on hiatus because people responded with anger over a VERY biased comment seems very juvenile to me, Rasta. You were and are one of my favorite people on here, but sometimes you surprise me.

And a revolution would just be crushed before it even happens. It's impossible to rally up people nowadays without getting wiretapped by the gvt. Very scary times we live in.

There has been a lot of Rallying and what not...

Even formal inquiry in congress for impeachment...

The fact that we are freely allowed to dissent is evident.

Look at how many books there are on the subject...comedy all over the television and net directly insulting the admin

we (the ppl) do get what we want, generally

We should just smoke out the whole nation, after a couple of nation-wide blaze seshes the men behind all the bullshit will themselves become the conspiracy theorists, so it'll all work out.

I'm sure you want to blaze without the fear of spending years in jail. Do you have that?

I think we should pull a v for vendetta and all dress up the same and march the white house, if we get enough people they'll eventually run out of bullets, and the remaining people alive can break into it and destroy it and all the "evil do-ers" inside, that includes the "decider"

A member and friend of mine advised me that a response was warranted in this thread, so I'll indulge a final time.

Okay?

I didn't mention any member in particular, I didn't quote anybody and I wasn't responded to anybody.

How exactly was it a malicious attack? How was it even an attack? I can see it perceived as an unfair generalization, sure, but an attack?

I harbor no ill feelings towards the average American. Hell, we have a lot in common, more than any other country in the world (minus a few small European nations)

Quote:

I do? News to me; I always try to make my posts intelligent, provocative and interesting. Far from 'shit'

Quote:

Negativity? Look at the title of this thread.

I admit, I'm naturally rather cynical and skeptical, but I think I have a good attitude about life and the world.

I wouldn't argue with the self-righteous part. I wouldn't live any other way than the way I think is right.

Quote:

Yeah, that certainly seems to be a trend.

Forunatley, that's what message boards are for; objective debate (something you already have stepped away from), discussion and for GC in particular; the exchange on information.

I don't intentionally try to piss anybody off, but I've always been that way, I've always seemed to strike people's sensitive nerve.

I think that most mature adults can handle that kind of thing in a decent and objective manner, and instead of letting their anger overcome them and resorting to name calling and ad hominem; one can debate the idea instead of the person.

Addmitedly, it's something even I still struggle with, but it's an effort everybody can make, y'know?

Quote:

I'm sorry you feel that way; I think every single member is an asset to the site as long as they do their best to follow the rules and help out where they can.

Quote:

Huh?

I've only had one warning, and I apologized and attempted to seek out the specific issue. I've even been contacting the mods and admins to revise the issue and see how I can improve.

I don't know what you're talking about.

And as far as I see it; it's absolutely none of your business. It's between me and the administration.

Quote:
why not just leave???
Believe it or not; YOU don't speak for every single member of GC.

Besides; it's not about popularity or anything like that (even if it was, my rep would reflect your assertion), it's about me seeking out friendly debate and cannabis discussion. I couldn't care less if I'm not well-liked in the process.


Furthermore, do you think attacking specific members of GC in *public threads* is really the attitude and atmosphere the administration wants reflected?



NOW I'm done. See you later, Johnny

Honestly, from watching the things our country has done over my short time here on this planet, what our government has been capeable of in the past, its hard to see things changing. IMO, the rich have the control now and there is no way to undo what is.

"The top 1% of the world owns 80% of the worlds wealth".

For this reason, we do not see change. Politicians are all being paid off to vote one way or another. Watch Michael Moores new film sicKo. Even Hillary Clinton has been bought out in one way.

I'm sure my feelings are shared by others, but it seems as if our fate is sealed. Bush fucked shit up with the no child left behind, patriot act and so on etc. Our system of government has become too corrupt IMO for protests to change a damn thing.

Why do you think our form of goverment is candidate-centered? It's one big popularity contest with the winners being those who can get the most money from Big Business and other sources.

I love America, I was born and raised here, i just hate seeing the direction it's going.

Also, all you bitching at Rasta Man, well he's right. He's right, but it's hard to do anything about it because of the way our nation is now. Anything thats seen as disagreeing with the gov't is seen as unpatriotic. No one likes being called un-american or a traitor but it seems this has people scared to speak up.

I've often wondered what could happen if we orchestrated some type of million stoner march on congress or something. Worked back in the 60's.

I'm apathetic. When Rasta_Man made that generalization, he was talking about people like your very own chipcago. The way I see it, the motherfuckers will be gone in a little over a year.

Then we can drag some new corrupted scum into our White House

I'll say right now that if you call Bush dumb, you're wrong. Bush is becoming a dictator over the empire of the United States, you don't get much more intelligent than that. I'd do it if given the chance, no matter how many potheads talk about me on their forums.
