How do you deal with an angry mob.
All of this mess we are in today can be laid at the feet of the Supreme Court Justices. Nothing we do now will ever change things back to the way it was. * is right 911 changed everything and not for the good. All we can do is hunker down for a long fight, one that will be all consuming for generations to come as diplomacy is far removed from this fight now. America will never be the same again.

1. Form your own mob, call it a Party, take over the country, state by state.
Get a majority in Congress. Appoint your own Justices to SCOTUS.

It's a never-ending struggle. One hopes. :kick:

5. If there's any proof the next election is rigged, all bets are off.
There will be a civil war.

Let's pray that doesn't happen.

11. Let the FBI and CIA take care of the neocons.
BushCo and the GOP house of cards are collapsing because of their criminality. If we continue to play by the rules, we'll be okay.

There's a psywar campaign going to discourage and intimidate us. Don't let them.

2. Why generations? Because of the make up of the USSC?
It is my understanding that the number of justices in not fixed in the Constitution. More can and have been added over time. The next time the Democratics control the WH and have a filibuster proof senate they simply add sufficient seats to counter it's radical membership.

I don't think that time is 50 years off.

4. To Kill a Mockingbird ....
I think that Atticus Finch's daughter showed the way to talk to angry mobs. I am having trouble remembering her name; I'm thinking of the nick-name "Scout."

10. Run the other way as fast as you can
until you hit another angry mob that thinks the way you do, join in, then have a war, and see who was right.
