(#5849) The arrogance of confident lawlessness

      You should know that you are being played for a fool when those you help into power use it against you. Many of us knew this and tried to warn of its coming but we were not successful enough. Now we are seeing it happening and wishing it away will not make it go away. Understanding the problem is the first step the many of us need to take in order to address a solution. My tact is to always give the wrongdoers a chance to change their ways through self improvement. However that tactic won't apply in our current situation. There will be no self improvement from the current mob leading our government.
     So what then do we do? We organize and protest to the greatest effect. We gather in numbers to great to ignore and apply pressure on those who think they are immune to the rule of law and we the people. Every act of protest that we the many take is another reminder to those in power who are abusing power that there is an understanding among we the people of what they are doing. We have to make it clear that not only do we understand their actions but that we are defiantly against them. Not only do we need the working middle poor class in our protests but the wealthy who are our allies as well. The time to unite is now and when all democracy loving Americans form together and protest we are unlimited in our ambitions.
     Let us say perhaps that the wrongdoers are able to withstand our protests regardless of our numbers and how organized we are. What do we do then? We revolt! We stop our daily kneejerk actions and force our society into a halt. No travel, no work, we drop everything we are doing in our normal lives and gather in the streets everywhere. Of course life saving actions must continue but non essential activities must come to a halt. Once our nation is effectively in a stand still position we are then able to demand action that will hold the wrongdoers accountable. We the people need our democracy back and if our representatives won't listen to us then we must remove them from honored positions they have dishonored.
