Something to know, Something to remember

Please remember who pays the bills for the media & all their reporter's. Be careful how you carry yourself if asked to give an interview, remember you represent all of us. Don't get "Star Struck". Don't audition, even though this is LA, don't audition during your interview. The Press is a Business, a greedy self serving business & if this movement should succeed, it will not succeed on the back of the media, we are a conflict of interest to them, remember that. We want to make Changes not Headlines, although I realize that they are a necessary evil. Unnecessary violence & shallow interviews are a sure way to turn the undecided & curious away. The worst thing we could do is to turn the folks who are employed or secure, against this movement because of someone mumbling & stumbling by trying to look intelligent instead of just being themselves, at ease & sincere We are not Hater's, we are not opportunist's, we are not ignorant, but we are justified..

Let's make history, lets give our Kids a chance, let's take our life's BACK! I added a quote from one of our founding father's, it seems apropos at the moment.

An excerpt from a letter written by Thomas Jefferson to James Madison on January 30th, 1787.

I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical. Unsuccessful rebellions, indeed, generally establish the encroachments on the rights of the people which have produced them. An observation of this truth should render honest republican governors so mild in their punishment of rebellions as not to discourage them too much. It is a medicine necessary for the sound health of government.
