COMING

An Egyptian style demonstration is coming to America. That is my forecast. Maybe this summer (in time for the next presidential primaries and election). High school juniors and seniors, some college students, some older rebels (me). Here is our cry to the president, congressmen, governors and all elected officials:

"STOP the spending, STOP the escalating trillions of dollars debt that we will have to pay for, that will be an unbearable life-killing burden on our lives and dreams...STOP the seemingly endless intrusion into every facet of our lives. Get off our backs. STOP telling us what we must do, what we can do. You do not own us, though you think you do. STOP choosing what laws to enforce and what laws not to enforce. STOP inserting America into every worldwide trouble spot. They are not our troubles unless others directs force against us. Then destroy those enemies with the matchless unparalled force of our weaponry. And START adhering to our Constitution.

We are free people and if you need us to prove it to you, we will. Peaceful, strident, massive civil disobedience on every conceivable front. We will buy all goods on the black market, snarl up traffic to make it difficult for people to get to work, start thousands of lawsuits to congest the courts and effectively shut down the judicial system, flood the post office with incorrect addresses and inadequate postage to overtax the postal system, use different identities for different purposes, strategically make voting difficult and urge parents, friends, neighbors not to vote in the charade that elections have become.

Those are Step 1. Steps 2 to 100 will follow unless you accept, by voice and action, that your dictatorial unAmerican ways are over."

We had a revolution in this country once before. We can have another one.
