This would also prevent far right anti abortionists from picketing the homes of Doctors who provide abortions. Have they thought this through? Maybe they’ll attach an ammendment to a futre sidewalk construction bill to exempt rel;igious organizations.

May God save the USA from the Male White Trash far right Pseudo-Christians who are turning OUR Nation into a fascist state, where women and minorities and non-Christians. and Christians who actually follow Jesus’ so-called messages of love… are treated as subhumans, and regarded as Communists and Socialists (although the dumb GOPers don’t realize that the VA, Public Libraries, Public Schools (which THEY want to teach Creationism as Science, and where they want NO sex education). Highway, Food Inspection, etc. ARE socialist entities.

Madness! Goodbye Freedom. Hello Police State!

Golly Gee, how submissive and subordinated have you all become? Lordy, their stripping away your sacred peaceful protest placebo. I understand how ‘civility’ may be the reigns holding back the article & posts so far, but enough!

As for the ‘…Georgia Anti-Picketing Law That Would Put Founding Fathers In Jail’ or ‘…these protests would be illegal, and Adams and many of the other Founding Fathers would’ve been arrested.’ Tis, tis!

If this type of law would have frightened ‘our Founding Fathers’ so what. These Founding Fathers were an elite group of educated & wealthy men. And from what I learned in school seems only one of our revolutionary ‘heroes’, Patrick Henry actually died for the rest of us. The majority got to be old.

It was the unnamed unremembered rabbled mass, the commoners who stood before the guns, bled, froze, and died for our ‘freedom’, to be citizens of America, over & over. It was the commoners, the land & moneyed poor who were the majority of those window dressing protesters & the real gun fodder in the struggle.

Those who dared stand, left all they held dear, for something that might make life better for all others, whose sacrifices, hunger, sufferings & blatant violations of ‘the laws’ of the King, for a dream, the ‘Americans’ who actually founded America.

Least ye all forget or ignore the ugly facts, that 50% of Americans live in poverty right now. Yet 92% of the ‘Recovery’ gains benefited only the 2%ers. Since 2008 the Right has passed laws with little opposition against just about everything, and were elected in by 50%+ of our population.

There are/were ‘laws’ protecting us from pollution of: air, water, food, etc, yet corporations openly violate, ignore, undercut & change those laws for profit & power. Undermined continually public education, our children’s educations, are privatizing nationally the public’s prison systems while implementing ‘laws’ that insure never ending populations of incarcerated to house & profit from.

Moved America’s jobs & factories out of America & been subsidized by our taxes to do it. Are making it almost impossible for you to use real money to buy stuff so they can charge you a service fee for using your own money, manipulated you to deposit in their vaults.

Stolen the value from 401Ks, taken retirement funds, and are drooling over the feast they’ll have soon enough with Social Security, a pile of money, our money not yet theirs. Etc. Moreover, seems convinced you that’s the way it is, it’s OK?

We talk about corporations as if they are these untouchable abstract entities global faraway, then our Supreme Court even commands ‘they are people’ too. With, more rights & freedoms than you or me, we’re only human beings. And the Republican Party & ‘centrist Democrats’ defend this BS. Who’s doing who?

Fact: Corporations are created & run by mere human beings, like Don Balfour of Snellville, Georgia, who live & die just like me & you. History, human history & America’s remind us, the everyday kind, that no one is untouchable or really protected. No amount of ‘security forces’, private mercenary armies, gates, wealth or power places any individual out of our reach. Be it a blade, a bullet, an ideal.

Our lack of courage & tenacity is why we are where we are as a nation, as a people. Why our President is not doing what we hoped.

While you worry, ponder & moan about being arrested for carrying a sign on a sidewalk, or yelling out loud?

Change never comes easy, especially this one. But it must germinate, first in our individual spirits, take root in our common shared belief that the dream of that uncouth mass of 1776, that first bled & died for America is all there is.

It must bloom & flower in our collective courage & tenacity to do what must be done for We, the people to be America. The America we know in our hearts it is, ours, all of us even the 2%ers. I believe we are brave enough right here & now, just waiting for you to know it too.

God don’t bless America! WE, the people … DO!
