Maybe we should just give up:

“Let the bible thumping kids go out and slaughter each other in exciting wars, let the rich bastards flood themselves out of the their florida estates due to global warming, and in three generations there will be no republics.”

1. Trouble is,

That there won't be anyone or anything else alive on this world either.

[nevergiveup]

10. Never Never Never

[Ghost in the Machine]

2. I will NEVER give up....

I want the country back that I grew up in. I want my kids to have the same freedoms we had.

NEVER GIVE UP!

[cassiepriam]

3. Yep, but the only problem is the SOB's will take us with 'em.

To sink on the Titanic.

[HappyWeasel]

4. There has to be a way to survive the self-destruction of the Republican "Master" Race

[cassiepriam]

6. I think that is what we are trying to do, fight back. Just for survival.

[Avalux]

5. Give up and do what??

I was faced with two choices years ago when I found myself jobless and homeless with three kids - either give up or keep fighting. Giving up was never an option, no matter how bad things were.

7. I mean, we could be like the shrews during the mesozoic era

I guess by "give up", I mean start forming a shadow country and world to reestablish after this one flickers out.

8. Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

D-Day: War's over, man. Wormer dropped the big one.
Bluto: Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
Otter: Germans?
Boon: Forget it, he's rolling.
Bluto: And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough...

Bluto: the tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go!

Bluto: What the fuck happened to the Delta I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? "Ooh, we're afraid to go with you Bluto, we might get in trouble." Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Wormer, he's a dead man! Marmalard, dead! Niedermeyer...
Otter: Dead! Bluto's right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part.
Bluto: We're just the guys to do it.
D-Day: Let's do it.
Bluto: LET'S DO IT!

9. I don't know what I have to 'give up'..

other than my life...and these days that doesn't seem like it's worth too much...dead or alive. Most of the fighting I'm doing these days occurs inside my head, as I battle to make sense out of a society corrupted with hatred, and the inability of the smallest sect of people to agree to be humane, if only in mind and spirit. Focusing on the positive...as in where's that?...is a daily fight indeed.
