Sad part is John_Doe, is that these are the types of mindsets leading the government and making the decisions... Aka the know-it alls. They honestly think that our government would back down or take into consideration group of people against them, and not use "force."
I am still shocked that some people are blaming the Americans for not doing something. Reminds me of a time when I was a kid who organized a fight between this bully, a friend of mine, and myself. When it came time for the fight, I found out my friend told the bully about what I was up to and made a deal with the bully to fight with him against me. Needless to say we stopped being friends and almost fought. Point being, even the biggest group of people against the government will turn on the group... Just a matter of when.

Also, the Obama administration did not create this problem so you really should place the blame where it belongs, on out of control corporations.
The only ones that are out of control are the most backward rednecks, the Republican party and the Tea Party movement, all of which are one in the same.

Too funny. The minute a crowd forms they would be outta there so fast. Who would we throw out? The housekeeping staff they would most likely leave to face the crowds? No. Americans are not stupid. Riots are not and have never been effective.

Yes, America is stupid! We should demand that BP quit using dispersant on the oil, period. How are we supposed to pick up the oil if it has been dispersed?

Ummm, is that one hundred thousand to one and where do you get your statistics I wonder. Also, what movie did you watch where everyone gathered at the white house at the same time and did what you describe? I would love to see that.

No Americans are not truly stupid! What would you have us do? Our government is out of control and even the most backward redneck here knows it. Should we riot like the Greeks(sarcasm)? We all see how well that turned out. Most Americans are going to fight back through their wallets and votes.
If truly most americans and even the rednecks knew it, then yeah, you should gather up, walk to the white house, and throw them out. When the army/police says no, you take to your guns. You outnumber them 100000:1, so it should not be that hard.
