I think as long as we allow a nation to monopolize violence for the certain class interests of a few, then we're giving to the system as much as any other. To think we can seperate ourselves from this current structuring is foolish and disrespectful of the countless thousands that've given their life to ensure we have the liberty and freedom to enjoy our conscious interactions and exchanges. This democractic system is a light of hope through the jagged rocks and obscuring fogs of historical downpression and governance. In the recognition of truths such as all people being created equal, all people having liberties and rights to freedom and the pursuit of happiness, we have managed to put the power and importance BACK to the people, to a degree, and not the interests of a few. It is now OUR job to continue this struggle, continue this fight with vigilience and mercy, through means of nonviolence, until it is all for the people, in the peoples hands. When all, from Africa and Asia to America, can enjoy their birth right of freedom without fear.

Jesus, the early Christians, MLK Jr, Tibetan Monks, and countless other heroes have shown us not only our ability to come together in the name of a collective interest and overcome those who would seek to obstruct it. We're aware of our collective interest as a social, national body. It's our duty to see that this collective interest is honesty sought after and prioritized, not simply a guise in which to advance a personal, class interest and agenda, such as it has been the last couple years with America.
