idea Organize A Protest

We blow enough hot air here to melt the ice caps 100x's over. But, what does all this talk mean if that's all we do? Does anyone have a novel idea for an official "debate politics" public protest? Or is everyone simply content just banging thier poor defenseless keyboards to death?

Re: Organize A Protest

1) You didn't post a poll, it's wrong to post a thread in "Polls" without a "Poll" (This will be fixed shortly)

2) Not everybody here agrees with each-other. In-fact, some of these people I would rather not have to talk to outside of debate politics.

3) How can you punch a keyboard to death? It's not actually alive, I must not have gotten the memo!

Somewhere, there is always a moron who thinks they are the quintessential of clever by pointing out the obvious.

1) Sorry, I tried to post a "poll" but there was no GUI/dialog to help set it up. This is the first time I've tried to do it. Care to enlighten?

2) No ****, sherlock.

3) Ever heard of metaphor, simile, or personification? It called lit 101. Let me guess, you take the bible literally.

Under the Post new area is "additional options" - in there is a checkbox about making the post a poll.

Contrary to cnredd, I think this is a valid poll. There are just as many people here agreeing as disagreeing.

If something were a cause I am interested in, then yes - I would protest.

Is the person behind your keyboard willing to go the step to get the job done as well?

Re: Organize A Protest

My god protesting in America seems the best deal in the world, its actually the most free country in the world but people here feel they shouldnt protest
example -Cindy Sheehan the fuss that everyone has made (even on this forum) about the ins and outs of it is very laughalbe

I was in Gleneagles and Edinburgh for the G8 to protest

Americans should organisea huge protest, i mean why not, in front of the White House, and this is a free country...

1) Then you should have told us about it! At least say "someone help me I need to figure this poll thing out". If you feel embarrassed (for whatever reason) to ask for help via the forums, then just PM any of the Moderators, we'd be glad to help!

2) You still didn't explain how DEBATE POLITICS can get a protest going if we all don't always agree on something? I don't think that protesting against "The world is flat" idea works anymore.

3) Haha, funny you should ask. I'm a Christian and I take the New Testament as history mixed with Catholic Bull****, while the Old Testament is nothing more than metaphor after metaphor. You insults seem to lack any humor at all, at least try for some humor it'll make you look better.

Re: Organize A Protest

We could protest Rational Ignorance.

I'm most folks here could get behind the idea that more Americans need to pay even more attention to what is going on around them.
