On Revolution

DAVE LOVEJOY·THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 2016


I think for there to be effective change, we have to pick a day in the near future and all stop what we’re doing. Completely. Leave those packages in the big brown truck, leave that plane on the runway, leave that wheelbarrow on the parkway and go to the nearest government office en masse.


We have geniuses among us, professional thinkers and problem solvers. Push them to the front of the line. No megaphones, no placards, just the citizenry showing up at the government’s door, peacefully. We get along, we’ll enjoy hanging out in front, getting to know each other better while our best represent us.


When the remaining police that are not among us come and ask us to disperse, we ask them why? We have peacefully come to a government building during business hours. We are waiting for our representatives to speak with their representatives about making some changes. I’m sorry that folks are sitting on my bus, or standing in line at my register, but this takes priority.


We need to invade our own country.
