Regarding War

If you object to the war make your voice heard.

You have freedom of speech.
You have a vote.

Use them. It's really as simple as that. Find out for yourself if these things are effective or not. Bitching and moaning about how powerless you are is really so self-fulfilling. Think of your dissidence as patriotism.

Courses of action:

• Join a peaceful protest
• Educate yourself. Find the FACTS not people's opinions.
• Engage people in useful discussion
• Write your public official
• Organize and stage a protest
• Encourage others to express themselves
• Turn off the TV
• Be creative and make yourself heard

"War always necessitates & creates perceptions of blacks & whites, where various shades of grey exist. Eventually, even the greys become polarized to become black & white. Perception turns into reality."
