If you read my original post, you will see that my gripe is there for all to see. My headline says it all and I see no need to repeat that.
respects
If I were it would be based on the consiquences that the population of America is now suffering.
Where is your line in the sand?, or do you wait till there is no sand left to draw it on?
My OP is based on gripes and moans.
If you want to live by inaction thats fine

I'm just saying to be informed, follow the facts - not your temper, and be civil and adult about it.

Well then, please, tell us what all YOU personally have done about it. Please, feel free to set an example. Let us know what you have done about all these conspiracies. Which government buildings have you raided? What politicians have you gone after and arrested, tried, and jailed?
What have you done that is so much better than what we have done, that gives you the right to look down your nose at us "americans". I put Americans in quotes because I have the feeling that you actually mean, United States citizens and not Americans. Or do you mean to include all of south, central and north america in your griping?
Anyway, tell us just what you have done about it that is so much better than what anyone else has done about it.... I will be waiting.
Peace and love

I was there at the G20, at the poll tax riots, at the demos fighting local government closed door decisions, when I went door to door promoting the scottish national party during the elections.
I have......closed all bank accounts, set up a campaign to protect anonimity, and much much more. I am a photographer and i attend demonstrations to ensure the local press have the right slant on whats going on. Ive covered shootings, seige situations and have been known to be a pain in the ass to any local politician who feels they can forget they are there to serve us.....................what have you done?
