What will be the match to ignite the revolution? [View all]

And will YOU answer the call?

The Declaration of Independence states it's YOUR DUTY.

How many threads here point to the outrageous usurpation of freedom in the United States?

At some point, these continued actions will crest, and tip over. How many here will leave the comfort of Western lifestyle. And join the cold dangerous path of revolution?

It's only our future if we demand it. Votes, candidates, laws, all tilt towards the Plutocracy. We see the evidence here EVERY DAY.

I love America.

"Revolution" is a loaded term and I think you need to define it before coalition_unwilling Jun 2012 #37
very interesting point KurtNYC Jun 2012 #42

OK, since you refuse to define what you mean by 'revolution' (or 'the revolution'), coalition_unwilling Jun 2012 #53
