Bitching about the bad people in charge is cool and all, but unless we can present a working method to change things for the better, and not just replace a red asshole with a blue one, then we're wasting our breath.

I think everyone should follow my lead of minimal consumerism and lack of civic participation and contribution to the tax base

Minimal consumerism combined with the whole reduce, reuse and recycle ideals, as well as upcycling, is always good.

I disagree with the lack of civic participation. You have to make sure that you are represented if you want to affect change. In a broken system, I realize that is easier said than done.

We need to take a cue from France and take to the streets en masse.

That's my plan, once the kiddos are grown.

Also, has anyone heard about the 2 young Swedish women who went on vacation to Morocco, only to get kidnapped and beheaded by "ISIS"? The video of one of them getting her head sawn off whilst still alive is making the rounds. Fucking brutal.

Man, I watched a few of those al Qaida / Isis videos. That pearl dude getting his head eased off was one and the one that has the good production and they kill a bunch of people on a beach. That **** is bad for your brain.

I've only seen ones done by the cartel. Won't be ****ing with that genre of gore anymore.

Whatever we think's going on, it's worse.

It's easy to tell the real from the fake propaganda ones. This one was legit and once was enough for me. Apparently the Swedish government has made it a crime to share the video.
