Let Us Protest Everything

 I think we need to protest more things and more often. I think we need to protest
everything.  We no longer should be working, going to school, playing, watching TV, or
anything else we once did.

I love the fact that people are protesting over everything. It doesn't matter what the subject is, what it's about, what it has to do with, what it will or will not do. The reality is we are Fucking crazy as a country.  It no longer matters what the point is, or who is right, or who is wrong.  None of that matters anymore.  It's all about protesting.  Why not ?  I have no problem with protesting or protesters.  If these jerks want to walk around and chant and carry signs that nobody looks at, good for them.  Let them get their exercise. After all, it has to be cheaper than going to a gym.
    

It's wonderful if that is what you like........However.....it needs to be peaceful.  It shouldn't be those assholes involved in the Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, or stuff like this, that do nothing but promote trouble and violence.  Most of these violent protests are organized by paid protesters whose only agenda is to start trouble and create confusion.


My point (if in fact there is a point to all this nonsense ) is simple.  There should be simple rules for all protests.  They should only be allowed when the outdoor temperature is below 30 degrees or above 90 degrees.  It must also be raining, snowing, hailing, or locust have to be falling from the sky.  And yes !!!!!!!! In order to protest.........You must be naked.....
Once again I have solved a serious problem with a few simple rules.

  1. I live in Berkeley and find that for some of these "beauts" protesting is their only social outting. They'll go to anything! I work, go on dates, have friends, do my thing so I'd have to really believe in something to get out there with a sign. These people are bitter and don't have social lives. A lot are brilliant but socially awkward or you know....not too attractive so they will march and protest like it was studio 54 in the 70's!!!
