Unfortunately, things have changed since the
time of black armbands and peaceful protest.
The Bill of Rights has been proclaimed, "Just
another goddamn piece of paper...", and in that
vein, protesting has been criminalized~~
If this is not enough to convince you that
we no longer resemble the democracy we think
we are, let me know, I can dig up more examples
of the fascist mindset the current administration
embraces...
