Yeah fuck that Ghandi guy. Fucking hippy. So you're saying that even if we believe that something wrong is happening that we should just shut up and wait four years to let it keep happening? Are you saying the Jews should have just "shut up and vote like normal people" when the Nazi regime came along? What happens when a government doesn't care about a minorities vote? Should black people in America have just "shut up and voted" about segregation even though they knew they were in a minority? What about those black and or jewish Florida residents who got excluded from voting because Bush didn't want them to? They can't vote should they protest? What about Iraqis who have no right to vote? Protesting allowed by his majesty then?
Unlike you you little Hitler fucktard I've actually been to protests. "Usually turn violent" my fucking arse, get a clue.
this kind of attack was the exact reason I fixed this statement on the third post.
"Add (Usually)"
Ghandi and The Civil Rights Movement are very good examples of proper protesting. But remember, they took YEARS to do this and were completely peacful.
Now if we all get into a protest against MS then we will probably have signs and walking in a circle at MS campus. We are now the violent ones. We are now trying to DESTROY a company, that is violent. Not to mention we would probably beat eachother sensless too.
I do not consider myself protesting because I have not paused my life to visit this web site or post on these forums. I do this in my extra time. Protesting is when you pause your life, shut down your website, or quit your job to go stand somewhere with signs yelling and hurting people and vomiting on the entrances to buildings.
Also, about the people in florida not getting a vote:
if you can't punch the card properly you do not DESERVE to vote. If you are so STUPID that you can't properly punch a card then your vote shouldn't count.
I have also NEVER heard anything about any specific religion not getting a vote in florida. It seemed to me only stupid people didn't get a vote. (do u have an article to back this one up?)
And you're right suse I am a good American... not a perfect American... I am not blinded by patriotism, i just support my overly elaborate and luxurious American way of life.
And Faust the lack of morals towards helping others when they should help themselves comes with the republican territory.
oh ya LOWER TAXES and CUT FUNDING
