Looking at media from the other side of the world there are a great many people saying and thinking the same thing and only need someone to get out on the street and drum them up.

This is why organizations are so damn important, and why the decline of unions has been so damaging to US political culture.

There is a brutal man with a gun, controlling and threatening a group of good citizens with consciences. He's going to do terrible things to them, and make them do terrible things themselves.

They have him outnumbered, but he has the gun. If they rush him, they can easily defeat him. But, the first one or two or three or four people to move forward will be shot and probably die painfully. Going first is going to cost a terrible price and you don't know for sure that anyone else will follow you, that your sacrifice will be for anything at all.

You feel a little paralyzed and at the same time ashamed you are just standing there.

What happens next?

Why dont you start with telling us what you plan on doing?

This will help you know whether you die alone in a ditch from a police sniper or part of a revolutionary protest.
