Does Anyone Have Courage anymore?

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

If you don't, that should give you some balls!
Just watching that encourages me to stand my ground,
and piss the whole world off in the name of honesty & truth.
(if that's what has to happen to help ignorant ears hear again)

I think it's about time people take what they have to say offline.
There's only so much you can do on a forum to spread truth around.
We really need to work together, to throw some people in power off their pedestal.
Change will only happy if you get off your ass and make it happen, right?

It's not going to happen with HOPE, or the next David Icke book.
It's time to stop waiting for a savior or a larger voice than yours
to say what you want. Be the voice of your heart.
Speak out! Be loud! Be clear! Be free!

Guess people don't want to hear the truth. ;)

I admire your passion, but it's not as simple as just fueling up on a rush of emotion and out we all go to spontaneously join forces and overthrow the Empire, as you know.

why were they booing her in the first place.

A week before the show she ripped up a picture of the POPE on Saturday Night Live while singing the Bob Marley song "War", and apparently the american sheeple were outraged over it. The truth & honesty of the song fell over ignorant ears, as usual.


War - Sinead O'Connor's version


Until the philosophy,
Which holds one race superior
And another inferior,
Is finally and permanently
Discredited and abandoned,
Everywhere is war.

Until there is no longer first class
Or second class citizens of any nation.
Until the color of a man's skin,
Is of no more significance then
The color of his eyes,
I've got to say "war".

That until the basic human rights,
Are equally guaranteed to all,
Without regard to race,
I'll say "war"

Until that day the dream of lasting peace,
World-citizenship and the rule of
International morality will remain
Just a fleeting illusion to be pursued,
But never obtained.
And everywhere is war.

Until the ignoble and unhappy regime
Which holds all of us through,
Child-abuse, yeah, child-abuse yeah,
Sub-human bondage has been toppled,
Utterly destroyed,
Everywhere is war.

War in the east,
War in the west,
War up north,
War down south,
There is war,
And the rumors of war.

Until that day,
There is no continent,
Which will know peace.

Children, children.

Fight!

We find it necessary.
We know we will win.
We have confidence in the victory
Of good over evil
Of good over evil
Of good over evil

Fight!


One of the greatest songs ever in my opinion.

Some have courage, but many do not. :(

Don't take this the wrong way because I'm seriously not trying to discourage you, but for the sake of accuracy, Sinead O'Connor has since come to say that her head was fucked up during that period and she now regrets tearing up the photo of the Pope.

[samiam]

Yeah I know...but despite her apologies over this incident, her message was well deserved & justified no matter what she thinks. lol

No we lost our will and vigor with fluoride poisoning.

Incredible courage. This also demonstrates that many Dylan fans are elitist hypocrites.
