Sorry, won't happen. That would entail that there be a concerted effort to exercise our collective rights across a wide range of people. At least here in the United States, most people could care less about rights, and freedom. All that will happen ultimately is that 'members' get clubbed, oh... 'tuned up', and the 'movement' will fall apart.
They have won, it's time that we all admitted it.
When you take a good look at your neighbors, the whole situation looks that much more pathetic. I got tired of screaming in the wilderness a long time ago because nobody was around to listen. They are all off slack-jawed, and drooling in front of the idiot box. Worried about their home 'investment' (one of the big lies). Refreshing their MySpace, or Facebook pages. Yammering on their cell phones about inane stuff to people that they will see in a few minutes. Waiting impatiently on the next 'tweet' from the latest self-important fool.

No, this isn't 1776, cause if it were, people would have already taken to the streets with whatever weapons they could muster! William Wallace took back Scotland with 2 weapons, a big ole sword and his mind!
This is exactly what I said in an earlier post, people are afraid of sacrifice! They want somebody else to do the job for them. Also, if you'd check your history, we never really won the revolutionary war, england allowed the colonies to be their own gov't, under the crown of england of course, and british never left until 1799. They occupied us for 14 years after the last shot was fired. America is just a british corporation, we're neither a country nor a republic. Check it out sometime.

POM, people are not going to wake up and wanna do anything until they get their doors smashed in at 3 oclock in the morning and the jackboots drag them outta their beds, women and girls in bus 4 and the men and boys in buses 2 and 5. Too late then to do anything isn't it?
