NO ONE YOU KNOW

It is hard to believe this is still going on. I feel guilty every time it crosses my mind. We should ALL feel guilty. It is the obligation of every last free person to feel guilty as HELL about this!
We Americans are passively sitting by while our government imprisons so many innocent people at Guantanamo Bay (not to even mention declare war on whomever they choose). I know the arguement is that all of them are not innocent, some need to be there. Well, guess what, that's not the way this country is supposed to work! What if you just happened to be in a building when a bomb went off? And what if they arrested and detained every one of you in that building while they investigated who planted the bomb? And what if 5 years later your were still there? And what if the world forgot about you? And what if the people defending you were the same people investigating you? And what if, even when people found out, they still didn't care?
Today I googled "Guantanamo Bay" and came up with 1.78 million search results....not too shabby. Then I googled "American Idol" and came up with 30.3 million search results! That's 1700% more references to AMERICAN IDOL than Guantanamo Bay!
Anna Nicole brings 14.6 million.
Britany Spears, 36 million results.
Harry Potter, 53.4 million.
Porn, 96.4 million!
I would recommend everyone watch "Road to Guantanamo", it's not pleasant to watch but we need to make ourselves uncomfortable. We need to stop sitting by and being quiet. This is complete bullshit! It's our country now, we are adults. It is time! We have to wake the fuck up. If we continue to be passive, it's OUR FAULT TOO! Do anything, no matter how small. Talk about it to someone you meet on a bus. Or, take it to the extreme and change history. Whatever. If nothing else, focus your energy and emotions on something and it will eventually bring it into the light. These outdated old farts are making our decisions for us! These fuckers are representing us to the rest of the world!!! I don't know about you, but I don't care to pay my government for it's services anymore! We can't march the White House and expect change. We COULD have a giant concert for a couple days and smoke weed/drop acid, that would be fun, but I'm thinking that probaby wouldn't be a sound political solution (not to mention we can't even legally fire up a joint in our own living rooms). But what if millions of people REFUSED to pay the government anymore? What if people refused to shop at stores until they agreed to waive the sales tax? What if we parked our cars and stopped feeding this war machine? It would suck! It would be uncomfortable as hell. It would be a revolution!
It would be, by far, the hardest thing our generation has ever had to face, and it could change everything. But that's okay, we don't have to do anything. Let's run to McDonald's and come back to my house to watch American Idol. The sweet beatbox melodies of Blake Lewis can make me forget about my existence under the heavy foot of our ever-growing oppressive government for a little while....
