If we tried at least.

I mean, people have been known to shut down countries. Like in France.

Americans stopped the Vietnam war, and got rid of the first Nixon. Although, he did fine by getting rid of himself. Protests in Brazil stopped their government from building more dams.

Stuff like this usually gets blacked out of the news all together so we don't feel like we can do anything. I strongly believe that if you don't like the news you should change it.

It's happened before. It's happened recently. Check out the Judi Bari(spelling?) case against the FBI. She actually won!

Just look around. We can make a difference if we really wanted to. No more addictive mind-numbing choices like, give me Lithium or give me Meth!

If you lose, fight again. I'd rather do that than burn flags or hate people for no reason. Or even worse. Do nothing at all.
