16. I have been crying off and on all day. No matter what our differences, we are all human.
We all want the same things: to freely express ourselves, to earn a decent living, to support our families, and to have a decent quality of life free from oppression.

What we saw today wasn't pretty speeches. It was a massive expression of a populace that clearly said "ENOUGH!"

9. Everybody seems to know more about this subject, than I do.
Why is everybody so sure that the next leader will be better? Is there a plan that nobody is sharing with us?

12. Because peoples revolutions are never hijacked by groups who use them for their own gains!
That's why everyone is so optimistic!

15. Really? Did you know that before military dictators take over, they usually
allow the students to organize and protest? Then an election is held and either a puppet President takes over, or the military dictator does.
