Thus there is no need for us to just lie down and take it.

In the 1770s, my Great Great Great Grandfather did not say "This is reality, get used to it." concerning the british empire and their king george. He stood up and did something about it, along with several of his friends.

You're going to die fighting a lost cause.
Most of the population doesn't care.
Occupy Wall Street, that worked out great huh?
If the masses actually cared, all they would have to do is stay home for a week, not work, not buy anything, stay offline, and the whole house of cards would fall.

Give me a break. I was responding to Chris0516, and that is the only language that sinks in.

There are also more forms of electronic entertainment than ever before.
Most young adults couldn't function without a mobile phone or Internet.
Weapons of mass distraction in full effect.

He was only commenting on other people suggesting that drivers should stay home (more or less) to keep these things from happening.

The masses are currently more dependent on government than ever before.

1- I did not make any demand for more government or laws based on this event.
2- while I touched on the motorist demands, it was only to challenge the moral equivalence that I felt you implied, and to say that the reaction doesn't mitigate the thuggery of the cyclists (in this specific event).
One of my general rules is that a reaction to an action can never mitigate what came first. But there's a big difference between saying that something is less wrong and endorsing it.

If both sides are somewhat wrong headed fools, is this not about equality or even parity?
