Short of straight-out illegal actions there is a lot of civic disobedience that organized groups of people could do. In this day and age maybe it will be construed as illegal, but goes beyond the conventional notion of protest.

John Brown has been on my mind a lot, truly one of the greatest Americans to live, and he aptly said after Harper’s Ferry “I am quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood. I had, as I now think vainly, flattered myself that without very much bloodshed it might be done.”

I bet the administration will label it far left terrorism and will use it to stamp out opposition. The shooter’s loose connection to Democratic Socialist party will be a propaganda piece to label all democrats terrorists.

I know what you mean yet I do enjoy the design of this poster, it is like something I would see in a Wild West Gazette. But in this day and age I agree this poster is not effective in conveying the political message. Maybe reduce word count, I think text size and sideways words are okay when used modestly.

It’s a ship of Theseus situation. Apparently it’s the “same” house he bought in 1953… at this point though it’s just the same property.

The massive cock slobbering that Warren Buffet got at his Woodstock of Capitalism last week was nauseating. All the media were fawning over how he’s still a small-town Nebraska bumpkin. I have to hand it to him he crafted his image perfectly as a “good billionaire” too.

If any of these protestors are immigrants then they are heroes because they are almost certainly getting deported.

Is this finally the first head to roll in this administration? It’s a shame this guy won’t see any real accountability.

I don’t see it as him being a hero, but this is arguably the first obstructionist act that any democratic senator has done this Congress. Cory Booker took and held the floor for no reason other than to stop all senate business for 25 hours, that’s not nothing.

Acts of resistance start small and by physically exhausting himself as far as he could take it, I think for some people it will be inspiring.

It’s difficult notion to wrestle with… I never like showing my patriotism and I always read American history very critically (thanks Howard Zinn!) but it’s also the only country I’ve lived in and will probably stay in for the rest of my life. I’m inspired that change can happen (even if it’s bad) in this country and even if is a long and hard path, I guess I can’t say I’ve given up yet. I also have two kids so I gotta try to give them something better.

When I protested a couple weeks ago a few people yelled at me at that I didn’t love America… the irony would be hilarious if it wasn’t reflecting a sad reality.

Truth is, Trumpists absolutely do not like free speech.

What also pisses me off is anything pro-Palestine is de facto pro-Hamas. The Feds are holding these students hostage because they are furthering “terrorism” on US soil.

They also say these foreign students are engaged in un-American activities, but the most American activity should be free speech and protesting the government…
