Every single status-quo supporter in history has told protestors the same thing: If you want to ride on the front of the bus, petition the county, but don't do boycotts and civil disobediance. Yes, if we all wanted to have a polite discussion amongst ourselves, reaching nobody but those wanting to discuss cars, Obama, Ebola, and the Mideast, we certainly could go on the offtopic list. But we want to: A) Reach real people involved in the situation B) Build a community Frankly, telling us we can do it on the offtopic list is an insult to our intelligence. You know it, and we know it.
