"Yawn.."

Okay, you do that. And feel so good about your protests as I used to do with mine. Carry your sign and yell out and then walk away.

Don't bother to come up with real answers as our Republic quickly slips away. But you will feel good that you made an effort. Been there...done that, probably before you even thought about it.

Here's a question for you. WTF good does anything do if you can't effort change and have a solid plan to do so?

I sincerely don't mean to be disrespectful, but you started this. Just so you know I was on the streets back in 1998. If you were at the same time, good for you. If you weren't, don't lecture me about activism.

I can't tell you how wrong you are about this wonderful opportunity to FOCUS (organize) against at least one of the issues I mentioned above. You want everyone to fly by the seat of their pants and just show up with signs with no direction, well, okay. Enjoy. I respect you for making that effort. Really do. Best.

“Okay, you do that. And feel so good about your protests as I used to do with mine. Carry your sign and yell out and then walk away.”

This isn’t a protest like yours...it is a movement. You and no one else is going to control it right now so get off your high horse and enjoy it. Trying to condense it to what you or even a few people think it should be will fractionalize it because this movement is against oppressive government which has different meanings to different people. Read up on your American history if you think a simple pinpoint message is needed. Your “Republic” is gone, went when the fascists took over private industry. We have to fight to get it back, but make no mistake, it is gone at this point in time. The rule of law does not apply to this government.

Oh, and I do feel good about protesting, why don’t you join the movement instead of trying to chop it up.

hmmm, don’t lecture you about activism? Sounds to me like you have an ego problem swabbie. I was active in the sixties, seventies, eighties, nineties and since...so blow it out of your ass. No disrespect meant...

Do you realize how many more issues there are going to be protests about? Second amendment rights, pro life, taxation, regulation, speech, government spending, defense, terrorism, religion freedom, etc. etc. etc. So, don’t go trying to create your own little minded faction. This is an American movement...let it happen.
