I am getting really fucking fed up with the federal government entirely ignoring, and working to get rid of constitutional rights. Unfortunately, I am no politician, and not a very good speaker. But I am damn good at yelling, and being part of a revolt. So, in all honesty, who is there to lead the revolution. Maybe Ron Paul should go straight up insane, and try to get it all started up. I don't really care who, but this is pissing me off. Heres some quick compilations of links I can find. Post up another one, and I will add it here: 1 http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080709/ap_on_go_co/terrorist_surveillance this started the idea, Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act 2. http://www.commondreams.org/views04/0128-08.htm Unconstitutional war in Iraq 3. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guantanamo_Bay_detention_camp Guantanamo Bay 4. http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/orders/ Executive orders given by bush 5. http://norml.org/index.cfm?Group_ID=5431 DEA drug raids 6. http://www.csmonitor.com/2005/0720/p02s02-usju.html Separation of church and state. 7. http://www.thegeogroupinc.com/whatwedo.asp privatized prison system, essentially prisoners are slaves 8. http://foxforum.blogs.foxnews.com/2008/07/09/no-shame-on-the-hill/ Even fox new hates the feds. 9% approval rating of congress. 9. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_speech_zones Freedom of speech I am sure there are tons more. The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act especially got me going. I can't believe it. What ever happened to following the constitution. Fuck it, I am pissed, and would be happy to revolt. Post up any good links, and your plan of how to fix this corruption. Then, I call for a revolution.
Let's just riot, everywhere. The people don't need to find a leader, the people get pissed and a leader will find us.
Problem is, there aren't that many people that seem to actually care. Until FOX news starts giving media coverage of it, the vast majority of people don't seem to care. Random rioting seems to get a lot of people in jail, and doesn't accomplish to much, unless there is an obvious statement being made. And, from what southpark has taught me, there must be media coverage. But seriously, I am really fed up. Everything seems to be heading towards a Big Brother government system.
Im game! I want to find a new leader! I am to sick of this bull shit! Im a 2012 guy so in all honesty i think its the "Start of the End" well thats what i call it. But we may be able to come out of this hole with a new leader but i dont think so! Its just OVER man! Everyone is going a lil crazy! Sure they been sayin it for years that people are gettin worse and worse! They are sayin nothin is really happening but shit look where we are at! Everyone is broke aswell!!! It is gettin worse and worse! I think hemp could be a major turn around for the economy really! It would hurt the system of drug traffic but as a whole in the world it might be a good thing in a bad package! But who knows! A new leader could be it! Im down with Ron Paul! Hes the shit i got his back! But then what you going to do about the oil shortage! Next problem! HAHA they just keep gettin worse and worse!
you could start a bunch of online stuff to attract people to it, then if you do that enough you might get some media coverage out of it and youd have people to riot with. i forgot the question half way through forgive me.
Anyone who's down for civil disobedience: http://www.campaignforliberty.com/ http://www.revolutionmarch.com/
Everyone go out real late, about the time when cars are no longer out, and hang up banners all of the city hanging from the stop lights.
"Once the Power of Love overcomes the Love of Power, the world will know peace." -Hendrix I read Ron Paul's Manifesto and it is so true how he talks about how "censored" American debates really are. It's like the people in the audience are not even human. The reporters had a fund going around $5000 to the first person to ask Geroge W. Bush questions about Pre-War Intelligence... "Don't Taze me Bro!!!"
I'm definately game but what to we do after the revolution? The only way to change a country is through violence and actions. Sadly it's true but the only way IMO. We should take over one town at a time and educate people on the reasons why we're revolting to gain publicity and start revolts in other towns.
Sadly, i agree. Even though i am a stoner, theres a time when push has to come to shove. Our gov't has been blinding us for years. They under educate us in our schools (slanting what we teach out children, keeping thoughts out of their heads), and the adults are lead on by a word game and a side-step. So wheres the rally point?
you have to be careful where you protest now man, or else they will lock you up. Don't believe me? look up "free speech zones" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_speech_zones They're already got their bases covered bro.
i say we kinda do something said a couple posts above except a little different. go out in the middle of the night, vandalize some local gov't shit and hang banners or some shit, idk or we could all go to DC get a lot of Media coverage and it would grow
Just another reason to start a horde and go knock on president bush's door. Fuck being regulated where you can protest. Thats just controlling the mob, concentrating everyone in one spot. Its like a mouse trap, who's seriously retarded enough to do that?
Lol. I just thought of this, what a twist and turn of fate this would be. Oh the irony. What if we went over to iraq and recruited some people to help us overthrow out gov't?
Violent revolution will be a catalyst for martial law. Either they will squash the uprising and lockdown the country or we will erupt into civil war and they will lock down the urban areas while the rural areas turn into a guerilla warzone. That is if our troops are brainwashed enough to turn a gun against fellow citizens. Then again there is always UN troops to worry about. Either way the rich will get richer, the federal government will gain more power and the common man will suffer the brunt of the ordeal. As a whole we need to stop paying taxes. We need to ween ourselves off of our dependancies on corporations and government by living truly free; growing our own food and hunting/raising our own meat. We need to stop going to work, stop consuming and wasting so much. We need to voice our dissent through the marketplace and our actions. We also need to stop getting ourselves into debt. We the people are a huge part of the problem, we've allowed it to get to this point and starting a shooting revolution will only perpetuate the problem. I'll stop rambling now.
The only people I'd want to be fighting beside in a revolution would be my fellow countrymen or a foreign power who truly believed in the US constitution. I doubt we'd find too many of them in Iraq.
Yeah, not sure if that is the best idea, but hey! Who knows. That free speech zone is pretty shitty. It seems as though a lot of relatively smart ideas (like the free speech zone) have been let to go WAY to far. Rather than be used to protect the people, all these ideas run rampant, and end up just controlling the people. It's never ceases to amaze me how few people are willing to get involved as well. I really like the banner idea, at least for a start. Maybe, do a "RIP 4th amendment, December 15 1791-July 9 2008". I think I am going to do that. Try to stir stuff up with the general public, and at least get stuff moving in the right direction.
