  1. when you call it "civil disobedience' by Suchetha · · Score: 0, Redundant

    the best and sometimes only way to fight a law like that is called "civil disobedience". made popular in the early part of the last century by people like Mohandas (Mahatma) Gandhi, the method involves a LOT of people who believe that the law is wrong gathering and breaking the law as a protest and (here's the important bit) ACCEPTING THE CONSEQUENCES. and coming out and doing it again Think marijuana laws are wrong?? get with a LOT of people, do it in public, and have the cops arrest you. go to PYA jail and come out and DO IT ALL AGAIN. it may even get the laws repealed of course if you can convince the judge that you were doing it as a form of protest, and protest is covered under "freedom of expression", then you could be free. but that may still leave you with a charge of vandalism. remember .. "if your in a situation like that there's only one thing you can do and that's walk into the shrink wherever you are ,just walk in say "Shrink, You can get anything you want, at Alice's restaurant.". And walk out. You know, if one person, just one person does it they may think he's really sick and they won't take him. And if two people, two people do it, in harmony, they may think they're both faggots and they won't take either of them. And three people do it, three, can you imagine, three people walking in singin a bar of Alice's Restaurant and walking out. They may think it's an organization. And can you, can you imagine fifty people a day,I said fifty people a day walking in singin a bar of Alice's Restaurant and walking out. And friends they may thinks it's a movement." good luck Suchetha
