Something George Carlin said in the show I saw in May has me thinking
He stated this world isn't ready for peace. In fact, we people have killed most of the people who stood for peace.

Ghandi, King, Sadat (after Camp David), Indira Ghandi, Rajhib Ghandi, Mandela had his life taken from him in prison, Jesus Christ, even JFK was working to pull troops from Viet Nam when he was assassinated. . most peaceful advocates were targetted and killed.

G-d forbid it, but do you think Cindy Sheehan's in danger? We say what the asshat Mr. Northern did, and that was to Arlington West. . .what about other Freeper idiots with an axe to grind, hate in their heart and an assault rifle?

G-d forbid it happened, but is it possible and what would the fall out be?

2. I think they've
corporatized society enough so that peaceful advocates don't register much. Maybe one or two here and there, but certainly not in this country. Not enough anyway. It's really not any kind of threat to power at this point.
