    I think a revolution is well overdue. Somehow people need to stop believing what the Government tells them and think for themselves

    like the war right now - I'm not against the people fighting but I dont like how they just go and do what the government tells them to do without question

    I think we need to unite and instead of letting the government decide our fates, decide it for ourselves...

    I dont know if Im making any sense because i cant quite express my thoughts properly right now but if you do understand help me out

    well I agree with you sister, 100% but people dont get together they fight and bitch and argue, then listen to the greater line of comand, alway passing the buck to the guy above them, you cant change shit.

    Ive spent ten years of my lifem trying to get people to work together, trying to create community and communiies where we go.....

    Ive lost everything trying to change the world, now what?
    now Ive lost my kids wife, my young years,
    now im 28 have nothing butr a hippy bus and no family.....

    I have written on the backof my bus, "they say no one can change the world, but maybe all of us can"

    it doesnt work, do well in life absoarb yourself into the mass fit in and think about it while your sitting warmly with your loved ones around christmas and Im freezing my ass off alone and broke in a stinkin hippy bus...change the worl...dah
    sorry to burst your bubble kiddo

    A revolution is an open invitation for our government to find those who oppose them without searching. Remember that horrid college campus shooting? Yeah. Repeat of that, but with new weapons, and tanks!

    Revolution. Nice idea, it can't happen in the traditional sense. People are afraid, and with good reason. No matter how hard you struggle against the system, their guns are always bigger than yours. Literally AND figuratively. They've set it up just so. We can APPEAR to be rebelling, like the hippy in the bus, but at any moment "they" could just simply decide they didn't like your looks, and you'd be "outta here". We only get allowed just so much appearance of "freedom" to make it look "good", and if we are well behaved boys and girls we will not question the great "daddy" who knows what is best for us. No control over the external. So, I guess the best way to have revolution is from within. Knowledge and truth. Open minds. Set examples of others to see. Understanding. They can dictate what we do and how we look and live, but unless they start performing lobotomies on the masses, we still have who we are.

    Well I agree with that but I wish people wouldn't be afraid of the "guns"... I guess right now my goal isnt to get people to get arrested and go to extreme measures but just to realize the problem... people today act like brainwashed little children who do what they are told even if it is not what is right... an example: I hate the fact that I go to school (still in high school) wearing jeans that have a small hole in them and I get sent to in-school- suspension for the day.. Its not right.. who are they to tell me what I can and can't wear to a place that Im there aginst my will anyway - I mean dont get me wrong I love to learn I just like learning the things that aren't taught in public schools... I know that example is really trivial and you have to pick your battles but its still disappointing how controlled your life is and not by you.

    Hard to believe you could get suspension for that. I guess you go to a wealthy school that thinks everyone can afford new clothes.

    Well the place I live is pretty wealthy (but so selfish - no one trying to help those less fortunate :[ )
