M20 March encouragement

might do things like break windows and stuff like
that
About M20 March

my fear is how infiltrators or just dumb people
might do things like break windows and stuff like
that.

after the viet nam war, anti-war people used to
call the soldiers baby killers and spit on them.
i'm sure some of them were actually baby killers, but that is such a bad strategy for change.

the problem is you can't educate people who are
looking for the answers to what's going on with
names and spit. those soldiers and their families
are looking for answers right now. the lies of
the administration are now common knowledge even in mainstream suburban america.

people are really looking for answers, and we have them.. we have always known what this war was about, and have had ample time to formulate
articulate responses to peoples questions.

i hope this doesn't get messed up with violence.

the people who think they're going to be shopping are looking for answers too. these are exactly the people we need to be reaching. some behaviour might alienate them.

give them a break from shopping.. don't scare the shit out of them and break windows.

you know. the corporate insurance companies make out like bandits when there is looting like that, AND the media gets to make us all out to be a bunch of dumbshits.

please don't give that to them
