So, you aren't going to vote...
I love what I'm seeing on the board today: "I'm not voting, they're all the same...", "Why vote? It's all rigged anyways...", "America isn't free anymore! I'm not voting for..."

PATHETIC!

You sit around here all day complaining about the government, the administration, the things that our country does, and YOU CAN'T EVEN BE BOTHERED TO VOTE?

So, it's all the same - Obama and Romney were "chosen". Did YOU (yeah, you - the one with Cheeto stains on your shirt) do ANYTHING to attempt to make a difference? Gather signatures for a 3rd party candidate? Attend a Tea Party or OWS gathering? Even send a stinking robo-email to your congressman to complain about the treatment of pickle-nosed trout? ANYTHING? I already know you can't be bothered to vote...

And you think that you are uniquely qualified to:

- Spot a shill. Really? Have you ever done anything important enough to warrant a shill? Do you even talk to people who are not on this board? Try making a difference somewhere, anywhere, and then you can say "this person has been sent to subvert my efforts". SITTING AROUND AND COMPLAINING DOES NOT WARRANT HAVING A SHILL COME TO CONTRADICT YOU - get real.

- Survive SHTF/TEOTWAKI/ABCD (insert stupid acronym here). Yeah, a case of Ramen noodles and a dull K-bar is going to save you. No need to get any training or even lose weight. Seen your toes lately?

- Complain about anything this country has done - ever! You quote RT (Russia Today! - think "Voice of America" with the Little Drummer Girl reading the script) as if it's gospel. Heck, why not put all of your faith in Al Jazeera? Sure, they do get somethings right - but they put their own spin on it, just like the MSM! Do your homework! Don't suppose that they have anything to gain from lying to you? Think again!

You won't even vote! Do you really think that sitting in your basement in your underwear and posting on a chatroom is going to change anything? IF YOU DON'T DO ANYTHING TO CHANGE THINGS, YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO COMPLAIN!

You seem emotionally unstable. Is reality to much for you? Maybe you should go vote and tell yourself you're making a difference to calm yourself.

No, not unstable, thank you. Just very, very frustrated. I read the posts by thousands on this board about how things are going-to-hell-in-a-handbasket, how the Illuminati control everything, how it's all the fault of America/Israel/NWO/Small Furry Kittens. But an incredible number of you can't even be bothered to vote. Nope, we'll just complain, thank you very much. No point in trying to make a difference - I'd rather just sit here on my butt and whine all day.

Sure. No need to try. Just sit there and whine.

How would you know if "they" won? Done *anything* that would give you any kind of insight into the political machine? Gathered signatures? Just talked to the candidates? Vote?

You do realize that every country votes for its leaders. The Soviet Union, Cuba, Venizuala, etc. hold elections mandated by their Constitions. Are you suggesting that the citizens who didn't vote for Stalin have no right to complain?

That's fine - and I very much hope that you're right. However, sitting there and complaining day in and day out changes NOTHING! You don't believe in the government? Fine - make a statement: use the write-in vote. Vote for the Libertarian... heck, vote for Snoopy, I don't care. But don't just sit there and whine and *never do anything*.

I thought that I did. I do not know what the voting rights in Russia were circa 1930, but if they were able to and did vote, they had the right to complain. If they could have voted and did not, they have no right to complain. If they had no voice in the matter (that is to say, they could not vote at all) then yes, they have the right to complain.

No, I'm afraid that you missed my point. I'm saying that the people who could have voted but chose not to (regardless of how things turned out) have no right to complain.

Re: So, you aren't going to vote...
When people don't even bother to go vote, that is evidence to the opposition that they have won already because they have disenfranchised you. All they had to do was make it a little difficult and you folded.

Maybe the vote is rigged. But maybe..They are watching to see how many will still believe enough in an America to try. If less than 50 % show.... Then I guess they figure 50 % gave up.
Only 50 % left to go to demoralize.

If the 50% who were not going to vote.. voted 3rd party.. well.. maybe there would be a change.

Try...

Im saying I am not pleased with EITHER candidate and I will not comprimise my principles and vote for someone (ROMNEY) which is what 99.99999999999 percent of all of this SHIT is about. However, if someone had a gun to my head, and said vote or die!
