anarchy?

We wanted freedom

We brought anarchy

We were brave

We had ideals

- - -

But bravery and ideals

Never stopped the bullets

From our neighbor's gun

In the end

There was no one to turn to

And we died in puddles

Of our own congealing blood

But we were brave

And we were free

And we had ideals.

I think I'd rather live.

Wow... You have one hell of a point there. Anarchy is never a wise answer, but there's nothing wrong with anti-establishment in most cases. KILL YOUR TELEVISION!!! Sorry... I'm just in one of those moods today.

Just enough...Just enough to get the point across in a quiet...lip pressing way. For what it's worth...I agree. Although I hold out hope for the future I'm not in...I agree fully for the world I'm living in right now. Expressed very...post apocaliptic...I

Anarchy...it could work...if people weren't people. You summed the theory up perfectly Jane. Who knows, maybe if we create a super race of humans that never kill, then we can have anarchy. One can only hope...

oh wow... hmmmm... i utterly disagree with this notion. i to the time when this system crumbles and pure unadultrated anarchy rules... i dunno... most people would probably not agree with me...

but then most people would not be alive after an event cataclysmic enough to produce an environment w/o effective gov't... so... yup...

Complete freedom...I don't ever see that happening because we are slaves to ourselves also. And how can we become free from the world when we can't even become free from ourselves...

my ass off at the movies; for seeing a future in the generosity of my friends; for the relief and happiness when a loved one made it through a serious operation, and for being able to offer love and compassion and a hand to hold when another loved one was

not so lucky; for every morning and every night and every BREATH I take! For life, in all of its gritty sadness and shiny happiness and everything in between.
