I read the forums and try to add my input for support, but I have been noticing something that I think should be brought to the attention of everyone.
Forum topics are being added that reflect hostility, ignorance and criticism of our movement.
Don’t respond to these people. It’s not worth our valuable time and resources. The ignorant will come around when they are ready to listen and understand that they are a part of this movement too. The others won’t side with this movement until they get hit like the rest of us. For example when 10,000 Wall Street layoffs occur next year, according to The Inquisitr (http://www.inquisitr.com/149778/10000-wall-street-employees-to-lose-jobs-in-2012/)
I propose a reverse blackout, don’t give the ignorant and others a voice by responding to topics that do not offer constructive ideas or support.
Let us relight the torch of democracy so that it may burn with such vigor, that all who gaze upon it will be awed and inspired.
I never said that they could not post a topic or be included. But why encourage those who do not want the system to change? Is that not what we protest for?
People should come here with open hearts and minds and shed their fear and hatred. How else can we build a better future for all of us?
So you wish for a Democracy in which the voices of the ignorant or others who disagree with you are silenced or ignored? Isn't that the form of Democracy we have now?
Wonder why those darn founding fathers established a REPUBLIC instead of a Democracy......
"Let us relight the torch of democracy so that it may burn with such vigor, that all who gaze upon it will be awed and inspired."
AMEN to that!!!
