      I guess we should actually try it first before succumbing to defeatism in advance, no? There’s a lot more of us than there is of them… What is it people say about the 4 Boxes to be used in defense of Liberty:

      1. soap
      2. ballot
      3. jury
      4. ammo

      “Please use in that order.”

      (That’s a quote from Frederick Douglas)

        Exactly. We’ve never actually used our voting privileges. Not really.

        Whenever I hear the argument that voting doesn’t do anything, I cringe.

        When people show up (not just for presidential elections), shit gets done.

        But Muricans are lazy and expect others to do the work for them
