Declaration Of Independence

    Everyone who wants to protest should read "The Declaration Of Independence" : Virtually, all the tricks of a corrupt government can be found in the "causes for war" section. Oppression and persecution have been practised for thousands of years by religions to control the people; and the rules haven't changed; just the scenery!

    I am in agreement. It is very relevant even today. Good point to remind people of.

    I should also say that for thousands of years, clever men have manipulated religion; law; politics; and finance; for power: and all the things which come with it including money: Protesting demonstrates that people are actually committed to a purpose; and can get a message out that would otherwise be ignored and therefore denied by the status quo society: and should be done for those reasons; if the movement is going too actually change anything, it will have to Unionize; and Organize! There are no short cuts too anything worth while.

    So. if I passionately feel my ideas can make a difference is the only way to project them to others through protesting........how civil is that?
    If I prefer beans over carrots do I have to march on the kitchen?
