Did you read the rest of my statement? I said that in the meantime we're working to establish women's clinic and health cooperatives.
The gun part would simply put the right wing on notice that their little program to protect fetuses will come at a bigger price.

Government programs are lousy ways to change people's consciousness. Being an ignorant liberal, I don't expect you to understand this. We could do alot to get rid of racism and white supremacy if we at least dispensed with the liberal notion that a few laws will change things. Racism won't go away by punishing racists, changing the minds of racists is more effective.
That's not an easy thing to do, so it's easy to see why so many people opt for cotton candy solutions like affirmative action.

Leo, you need to pull your head out of your ass and smell the political winds for a change. The Bill of Rights, or any other document that none of us have had any input on, aren't worth a damn if you don't assert and fight for those rights everyday.
Bill of Rights? They didn't prevent the Secret Service from breaking into my friend's apartment before A16. They haven't done squat for us activists this year when it comes to having our say on the streets.

Damn straight. Let's get rid of schools. We don't need them. They interfer with learning.

You call yourself a Leftist and a teacher? I'm sure you understand the anarchist position on taxes and the government. I'm for all of those things as long as they are provided by the community, not the government.
Leo, buddy, you need to get out more often. There are other ways, time-honered ways, to provide social services, other than by government.

Think about this a little bit and get back to me.

What the fuck does soccer have to do with this? Are you saying that you'd rather have a society where solidarity and getting some good physical exercise would be outlawed?

It a more radical alternative than having your nose stuck up the ass of the Democratic Party.
