So you're willing to be prosecuted for violating whichever laws it is you're protesting? Because that is an essential aspect of civil disobedience. You have to be seen being punished for something you believe in. For it to be effective in getting the law(s) to which you object repealed, it must also spur general popular support.
As I said before, simply breaking a law is not civil disobedience. You have to take your lumps as part of it. Otherwise, you're just a scofflaw.
Who knows if I will or not, or if any of us will or not. I encourage ALL to do the same as I am, IF they have the same commitment to freedom as I do. Fred -- Paid purchaser of ALL SuSE Linux releases since 6.x
