yes i agree with this/no i do not agree with this
1. i think human life and human dignity are more important than money, and that any financial profit at the expense of damaging the enviroment is not worthwhile
2. i disagree with discrimination and oppression, i say NO to racism and extremist religious views. i believe all humans should have equal human rights no matter their color or belief or gender or nationality or anything. 3. i think we should stand up to, speak out against, and boycott big corporations that damage the enivroment, displace people and create more garbage and problems in rural and urban areas. i dont believe writing letters to my government representative will make any difference due to the corruption caused by million dollar deals 4. i encourage others to reduce their consumerism, to support locally owned and operated buisness and to donate to charity. i support the fight against poverty and oppression, and join in the struggle for the basic human rights that belong to every human being 5. i encourage everyone to use their circumstances and imaginations to help fight in this struggle. i do not believe that any one leader or authority should be in controll of this movement, but that people should be free to pursue all tatics and stratagies of the greatest possible diversity, according to their own conscience and judgement. |

Here, this is exactly the kind of shit im talking about:
Loggers Threatening Isolated Indians in Western Brazil By Tales Azzoni Associated Press Writer Published: Oct 28, 2005 SAO PAULO, Brazil (AP) - Loggers were cutting down forest dangerously close to where government anthropologists detected traces of an isolated Amazon tribe, an Indian rights group said Friday. The Catholic Church's Indigenous Missionary Council said logging operations were threatening the so-called "Rio Pardo Indians" in midwestern Mato Grosso state, roughly 1,250 miles northwest of Sao Paulo, Council spokeswoman Priscila Carvalho said. In May, a judge banned loggers from the area and restored federal protection for the few remaining members of the largely "uncontacted Indians." Anthropologists with the Brazilian Indian Bureau first detected traces of the tribe in 1998 in a densely jungled area of Mato Grosso. Efforts to protect the tribe were curtailed last March, when a judge initially upheld a lumber company's argument that the federal protections would cause the company irreversible damage. He later reversed that decision. But the Council claims that loggers were ignoring that order and had returned to the area. The Indian Bureau said it found in the region pumps, chain saws and other equipment used to cut trees. Little is known about the Rio Pardo Indians except that they probably are hunter-gathers. Anthropologists estimate there may be as many as 50 members of the tribe and that their numbers appear to be dwindling. About 700,000 Indians live in Brazil, mostly in the Amazon region. About 400,000 of them live on reservations where they try to maintain their traditional culture, language and lifestyle. AP-ES-10-28-05 2152EDT |

I agree with this one. Much better wording. Although i beleive leaders rise up out of groups regardless of any such guidelines. It's just the way that humans interact. Some are followers, some are leaders.
