1. But we have been and will continue to take to the streets
against these illegal wars. Just because it doesn't make the news doesn't mean it isn't happening. But if it were true that no one was taking to the streets, yes, I think that would be tacit approval. Good thing it isn't so.

2. I agree. They don't cover or under report. But,
if we had bigger numbers, it would be harder to ignore us.

4. I'm sorry, but what a stupid question. Nuclear war is NEVER ok.

6. That seems like a FReeper/Karl Rove type framing. Don't know how to answer
as worded but very disappointed and sickened that Americans haven't taken to the streets long before this with the never ending Nazi crimes of bushco including his CIA father's destruction of South American government and MK-ULTRA human experimentation and, as always, the JFK and RFK assassinations and the cover-up murders that followed and then JFK, Jr.

7. Everyone needs to have a "Civil Disobedience trigger". Mine is
use of nuclear weapons. I no longer wish to live outside of prison if my government uses nuclear weapons again.

8. No.
I don't believe in the power of protest.
