It's TIME to take ACTION! (???)

I don't idolize AJ. I've heard everything bad about him, but it all really just seems like a bunch of hateful disagreement with his tactics. I just relate to him because he feels the way I do, and handles things the way I do (especially anger) haha.

Going around and ranting to people like AJ isn’t going to help the world or make you any friends (though it may feel good to do it).

When I first got the feeling you have now I joined the Marines. I spent the following 8 years doing that. I wouldn’t recommend that route though; times have changed. Go volunteer your time and effort furthering a cause you believe in. The only way to change the direction of this country through the current system is to participate in the system and change it from within. This means you must get people to Washington who can make the changes you want. Find a political campaign to work for. Mid-term elections will be here before you know it. Part of campaigning is making people aware of the issues, so you’ll get to explain to people why they need to vote for your candidate.

Just throwing out ideas….

There is no direct answer to your question. I can’t give you a magic answer to satisfy the feelings you have. If I had the answer I’d let you know but nobody has it.

I've actually made a lot of friends that way. Granted, they're all online friends, but it still counts.

I agree with everything else you said. Good ideas.

So have I, here in ATS, but it’s not as well received in real life!

Best of luck in your pursuits.
