Attention Activists: It’s Time to Grow Up
Written by Jesse Richard

This is a message to all the well meaning people out there who try their 
best to make this world a better place, but in fact have no impact on 
the world, whatsoever. It is time to take your activism seriously.

The time has come to stop your ineffective tantrums and get serious. 
There are two ways to effect change when it comes to government: passive 
resistance and revolution. Our republic is broken and we no longer have 
representatives in government. Constantly asking our elected 
representatives to legislate on our behalf is not only a waste of time, 
but also totally unnecessary in a government that no longer represent us..

Actually it is a Catch-22. We live in a communication age. We have the 
Internet, e-mail, cell phones, land phones, faxes, postal mail and 
megaphones with which to contact anyone, anywhere, at any time of the 
day or night. Still, we are told to get on buses and trains so we can 
march in Washington DC to tell a handful of government officials who 
don’t even know we are there to do what they were elected to do.

The only legitimate purpose of such a trip at this point in time should 
be to remove those ineffective representatives and leaders and replace 
them with people who would honor their oaths of office and actually 
represent the people who put them there!

I keep getting e-mail and phone calls from organizations asking me to 
attend “vigils” to take back the nation. Let me tell you 
something...vigils are to activism what masturbation is to sex. It might 
make you feel good but nobody else benefits. At least call it what it 
is...a whining defeat celebration. Why not use your time effectively, 
like getting people together to plan real change rather than real noise....
