Why are americans so scared of change? Why in our own Government, do we keep recycling the same unlightened idiots who are just loathing in self-interest?

It seems the only virtue this country still posses is its name and that makes me sick that we the people have allowed our country to be distroyed both financally and philisophically by nothing but common criminals in Washington DC!


Its time to let Love Rule this nation in its actions and principals, its time to understand we have to take cleanse our whole society, not by violence or any other torterous idealogy but in the name of LOVE!!

Let Love be the opposition!

Dude the government dont give a s#it about the common person, they make sure them and theirs are taken care of and thats all that matters to them. Its time people stand up and say i will not let this happen. Its time we stand up and say im here and i demand to be counted. Its time for the people to show that they rule this country, its time to put "WE THE PEOPLE" back in charge.

Sure, that as 155 years ago, and it was settled in 4 years with violence, that really wasnt a true opposition because someone was forced to give in by usage of violence. A true opposition is unshackable and cant be broken by the use of a gun. Its a determination by all us people with a conscience, if we all decieded to end this ideal that we call established government, they would be nothing but 500 or so, men in suits,

Thats it

lobbyist's exist because a few people with money care or make a big enough fuss
the military has to follow orders..we should be grateful there are still people willing to serve this country
the common person does not know what is going on most of the time and short of inane complaints they do not care, not enough to take any action.
Why point fingers at those willing to work for something, be it their own interests or the interest of others when there are so many who sit idly by and complain or act because it is what is popular at the moment.
Our government is not perfect, but our lives a far much better than a great many others remember to appreciate that before condemning the wrongs of others, we may not know what evils must be done to continue living the way we do, they way many Americans expect to live and never fully appreciate

Whos left a greater impact on this world Mahatma Ghandi or Joseph Stalin? In my opinion this form of Government is just like the neighborhood cat, If you quit feeding it, it will disappear! Violence is so primitive, so neanderthitic, so outdated and usless. Ghandi freed a nation just by saying NO and meaning it, the idea of Cival disobedience based in Ahimsa is the answer to this tryanic establishment we call our government. Ghandis Idea of Satyagraha is the perfect example of why violence is never ever needed to get what you are after

if someone else is willing to fight, you have to be prepared or you will suffer at their mercy.

it's that simple. there will never be a world without conflict because it's part of human nature. Why did Stalin fall? because of war. how was Hitler taken down? war. if there is evil in the world, there has to be someone willing to stand up to it.

if they bring guns with the intent to use them, have fun preaching peace and love as you bleed to death.
