Mass protests are fine but in order to make meaningful change in government one must do more than protest.
There is another current FreeForAll thread here about the late Paul Harvey. Mr Harvey had a favorite saying which went something like this: "Self government without self discipline will not work." Until and unless We the People regain control of our public servants nothing is going to change. And as long as We the People are content to elect and reelect politicians who grant favors to us in exchange for our votes we will continue to get the government we deserve, regardless of the political party in charge. |

Before guns were so widely distributed, people would actually storm the building and carry the bums out. Of course now there would be guns and death, but back then it really worked. That is a concrete example of how guns have changed our culture, in that it is assumed the worst will happen, rather than just a tar and feathering and a ride out of town.
