"The fate of the country does not depend on how you vote at the polls -- the worst man is as strong as the best at that game; it does not depend on what kind of paper you drop into the ballot-box once a year, but on what kind of man you drop from your chamber into the street every morning." ~ Henry David Thoreau
"When the enforcement arm of the state—the police—refuse to obey their masters, and instead join the citizens they once oppressed, a revolution is at hand. The irony of police revolting after not being paid to act as the enforcement arm of the state—to quell dissent among the citizens—is golden, and hopefully it leads to a 'blue' revolution in which police go back to protecting the people, instead of their masters."
