> I'm so sick of being sickened. I hate that this is becoming the norm and we can't do anything about it.

There's only one thing you can do "about" it: Get the fuck out of the USSA while you can. Yes, this is a radical idea, but you can't deny it's starting to make a lot of sense.

Seriously. You personally can't affect what's happening all around you. Voting doesn't change anything. Writing to "your representatives" (hih!) doesn't change anything.

So what's left? You can't do anything about what's happening to your country and, by extension, you. But what you can do, is remove yourself from harm's way and go somewhere else.




Actually, I'd rather try and help fix the USA. It's a pretty nice place and a lot of really good people live here.

Those people deserve a lot better from their elected government. Maybe the right answer is to have more people that care run for office. I'd love to help get some makers into congress and start fixing the problem.
