Alright, there's good news and bad news... The good news is: You live in America and not a country like Egypt or England where the government has the power to just shut down things like cellphone communication in order to disrupt protests. The bad news is: Last Thursday the San Francisco government shut down cell phone communications in order to disrupt a protest... Fuck.
"If somebody had gotten hurt or killed over it, I don't think that price is a price that we're gonna pay for free speech." Jesus fucking Christ. Has that cocksucker really never heard Franklin's liberty vs security quote? Goddamnit San Fransisco... It's as if George Orwell was standing next to you saying "Don't touch that, it's hot." and you still fucking touched it!
Some wise son of a bitch (probably Richard Feynman or Hunter S... Who remembers at this point?) once said something like "When it comes to shitty governments, all experience has shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they're accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."
Luckily, in America you can still "throw off such Government" without all the hassle of dying in a revolution (getting shot is not nearly as fun as it looks). All you have to do is accept the fact that the government's a necessary evil that will fuck you the first chance it gets... then go vote for candidates who support individual liberty and shrinking that Goddamn leviathan. Also, every time you meet a liberal, attack his beliefs until he's weeping openly... then fuck his girlfriend.
