"Throw a little tea in the harbor?...I don't think so, that will only give Ye Olde Fox Lies ammunition to say we are unruly."
"Give up my boxing title for an unjust war?...Not me, i can do more good with tons of money."
"Cheat in elections? What if we get caught? Two wrongs don't make a right."
"Form an armed militia?...Crikey, that's for those idiot gun nuts-- we carry cute little signs."
"Tax revolt?"...I could get in trouble"
"...civil disobedience, civil unrest? ---I'm too busy typing on an internet forum..."
We are the biggest group of so-called rebellious pansies (non-married) in American history. We lost, and will continue to lose, because we are heartless, spoiled, cowardly, self-centered wimps. The only way "We shall overcome" is if we are ready to embrace the possiblility of "Burn, baby burn. Or hit rock bottom.
