OK
So youre still in school. You might not be able to drive yet, might not be able to vote yet, and might not really be able to even stray from the opinions expected from your parents. But, in any event, you are pissed! I know I am. This whole war thing could possibly be the dumbest thing you have ever heard. And yet, its totally real. Its happening. Its a few years before you might have to fight it, but youre not sure whether your older sibling, neighbor, friend or heroic stranger will be returning alive. In any event, its pretty disgusting what you see on the news. But you arent quite sure how to change it.
Well, my friend; just by visiting this Myspace you have forwarded the cause of peace, at least a little bit. And guess what, there are things you can do.

VOTE
If you can vote, do it. Honestly, is it that difficult?
EMAIL YOUR CONGRESS
And dont just complain. Give them a suggestion. Odds are they wont personally read it, but your opinion counts. Somebody will read it and record that you feel that way. Enough letters equals enough votes. You can vote pretty soon. The congressmen know that. Take five minutes and drop them a line.
SENATE,
HOUSE,
LOCAL,
MAKE SOME NOISE
Get out your guitars, pianos, drums, saxophones, harmonicas, synth machines, bag-pipes, steel drums or vocal chords. Any idiot can write a song. Even if you cant play or sing, you know you have friends who can. Cant write; play a cover. And I dont care who you are; get your butt in that mosh pit. Support the people adding harmony to peace.
GREAT PEACE SONGS,
GUITAR TABS
USE YOUR MYSPACE
A crapload of people come through your myspace. We both know it. And what's cool about that is you can show them anything. For the few seconds they are on your page, you control everything they see and hear. Why not send them a peaceful message and show what you believe in. HTML isnt really that hard, and you can throw anything from the internet up on your page. I mean, i know a total of two commands and i set up this whole page.
EASY HTML,READ/WRITE

WRITINGS
JOIN OR START A PEACE CLUB
Does your school have a Students Against War? If so, join it. If not, talk to your principle and see if you can start one.
PETITION
You can sit there and browse hundreds of petitions for every issue. You can do it sitting right there. God knows you spend enough time surfing your friends Myspace pages
ONLINE PETITION
ADVERTISE
Its pretty easy to get peace on shirts, stickers, buttons, internet icons, your cat, etc. And nobody wants to see the same peace slogan a million times. A white shirt and a sharpie can be your best defense against a good offense. And there are always shirt printers
CAFE PRESS
PROTEST
Ah, protest, the glorious way to get your word out. No more sitting on your butt. This Myspace will be displaying upcoming Cincinnati protests and events in our Upcoming Shows segment. And if not, check your newspapers and the internet
