When would you revolt?

[Edwardo_son_of_haqim]

What would your government have to do for you to join a milita and revolt or would you follow your government unconditionally
?

How far is too far or what actions would they have to do before you'd rise up, what laws would they have to pass or freedoms deny?

[Darth Cluich]

I'd revolt if they took away my Asian porn. :p

[wendigo]

I don't like being told what to do.if it doesn't concern me then i don't care.

[Teej]

It would take something like genocide or thousands of people being arrested for no reason. It'd have to be something extremely big if I were to revolt against my government.

Cluich also has a valid point. :)

If they start messing with the Bill of Rights, I'd get behind a revolution.

[Sable]

probably something along the lines of bush staying in office to further the religion behind the laws.
And if monotheistic religous practices were being forced upon public schools.

[Klark]

If comics were no longer allowed...which would mess with the Bill of Rights or the Constitution or something...um basically, I'm with chriz.

[Teej]

So some of you would be willing to actually kill others over something like religion in schools or something along those lines? How does that make us any better than the terrorists that go to war over religion?

Our rights would have to be seriously trampled to the point of innocent people dying in groups for me to actually join a forceful opposition.

Who says we need to be better? I don't dislike terrorists because they kill for their beliefs. I dislike (most) terrorists because I don't share their beliefs.

[Sable]

to revolt is not always to kill.
Nobody's ever innocent these days.
And we have terrorists of our own, so really, we are no better.
One of the main reasons people go to war is to shove religious bs down others throats. Because the other side believes in something different and we must show them that they are wrong. Elitism never worked well for government structures.

I'm sitting with Chriz on this one, tampering with the Bill of Rights would definitely be my turning point.

[Darth Cluich]

Eh, they've been tampering with the Bill of Rights from the beginning. Take the differentiation between protected and unprotected speech.

Yes, but they haven't actually cracked open the hood on the Constitution and changed anything yet. I consider that to be a significant line to cross.
