Yes! I feel so alive!

Comrades,

Just got back from a protest against the bioweapons lab they're building in my own little sleepy town of Frederick, MD.

Let me tell you, protests are fun!

Even though I'm still only sixteen years old I'm still very politically informed and aware and this was a great way to express that.

We had leftists of all sorts, anarchists, greens, social democrats, socialists, etc. Great time, we all came together and did a huge march through downtown waving our flags, blasting on the bullhorn, and chanting. Some of the participants wore all white contamination suits and masks. I had a mask myself. Neat stuff

It was the first real protest I've gone to and I must say theres nothing more exilerating. I'm sad I've missed so many protests thus far but I'll be sure to catch as many as I can later on. Some people look at you funny and some people cheer you on, but you definetely draw some attention, and being the narcissistic beings we are, who could not love that :D

In short, if you haven't been out there showing your resist to capitalist despotism, do it! The incredible rush won't make you regret it.

Good for you! Happy to hear it. :D

Im glad you had fun.

Im thinking of writing a novel. Its going to be contraversial because it hints on current affairs in the future years.

Basically a young man is turned to make his own radical anarchist movement when the government allow emergency powers and arrest his MP friend. First the group attack the prison and free him and other political activists before hiding in the hills to train till spring. They then enter the capital and are joined by the masses who see the corruption before starting a massive riot. The black blocs break the baton charge and mounted attacks and reinstitute deomcracy.

A possible echo of the future...?

Anyway. Happy protesting.

Great. Now get a gun and start doing some REAL rampage, and you'll feel so alive that you're almost literally dying out there...which is pretty much the only moment when you truly live ;)

Seriously, 'tho. Sabotagin' a few things don't hurt 'tho, throw a few bricks, stones, or glasses, crush a few windows, whatever. Just don't get yourself maimed 'tho, and STAY AWAY FROM TEAR GAS, and uh, wear Intifada scarfes and have a knife just in case, 'cuz ah, the scarfes protect you from gasses n'shit..especially if you have 'em over 'eir eyes.... Just renember the sayin'....

Mischief! Mayhem!.... Soap.

When i have gained enough support and the conditions are right i will spearhead the struggle in England. First i want to spread subliminal messaging through books that it is possible and that the government will become like that.

I can see some form of emergency control making a dictatorship.

Good for you man. Protests are the only way to really display the anger of the people. Mailing angry letters to congressmen won't do anything. But coming together and showing you're support (or lack there of) for any serious issue is our only chance.

Right on comrade.

[Organic Revolution]

in my opinion you should have black bloc'd up

[slim]

I've written a few drafts of a kind of "recruit book". Its bout 40 A4 pages. It teaches tactics, strategy, anti interrogation techniques and how to make your own weapons.

Oh, and of course, the black bloc.

what on earth for? it sounds like the protest went well. how would have dressing up like zoro and breaking the windows of the local macdonalds contributed to the protest at all?

That would depend on the situation.

And on your or "the" objectives expected.

I do have the feeling however, that overly aggressive action was not neccessary for this protest.

[Organic Revolution]

idont know. there trying to shut down a bio weapons lab so it should have been a lil radical

[enigma2517]

Heh, if I did I"d be the only one there.

We had some anarchists in the group but they're the nonviolent type and the rest are ecohippies or just regular hippies.

Its a small sleepy town, not a whole lot of urban terrain, not the best place for something like that. Just a good way to get arrested.

[Organic Revolution]

right.. i ignored that fact
