We used to worry about silly, hippie type things

[MoseyWalker]

Silly things like clean air, clean water, good public educations for our children, affordable colleges, a social safety net, rehab instead of prison for addicts. All that silly shit, and more. Weren't those hippie types hilarious?

Now we worry about microwave weapons being used against american citizens by other american citizens.

Now we worry about privacy rights that no longer exist and a government that passes new laws to protect those who broke the constitutional laws that this country has lived by for hundreds of years.

Now we worry about our vote even being counted, and whether or not anyone cares.

Now we worry about our children. And their children.

Now we worry all the damn time.

I don't want to be microwaved by my government. I don't want to be tasered by the cop who lives down the street from me.

I don't want to worry all the damn time.

VOTE FOR CHANGE

THIS IS THE YEAR - THERE WILL BE NO BETTER TIME TO SHOW YOUR PATRIOTIC LOVE FOR THIS COUNTRY.

Maybe we can't stop worrying so much.............

edit: maybe we will be able to! maybe we can!

2. i used to be all peace love and understanding

but if one of these fascist freeper fucks
gets up in my face I'm knocking em down.
Don't tread on me.. asshole.

3. peace love and understanding doesn't stop one

from fighting back against fascist violence - whether verbal or physical.

Just remember - don't fight words with violence. Fight words with truth.

8. "Microwave weapons?!"

Shit, I STILL don't worry about that. Is that like HAARP? Sounds like buncha tinfoil hooey.

I guess I'm still a "hippie." :eyes:
