Worth Fighting For?
"Again with the philosophy S13!"

I know, I'm sorry. Just a little curious.

As of current, Americans are fighting for their right to bare arms. They are on the streets, campaigning, picketting, writting to congress, and stuff like that.

Here in the UK, we seem to have rolled over and given way to our increasing loss of freedoms. Just rolled over and pretended nothing was happening.

Are there things, like freedoms, democracy, and the alike, that people see as being worth fighting for? Or is the current loss of freedom the result of a lack of protesting?

A uni lecturer once said to me that the job of students is to proteat. I didn't get what he meant, but now it makes sense.

As preppers, would we protest against certain sanctions? If so, which ones?

I'm not asking anyond to riot or start a revolition. We're British and we don't do revolution. But it's a genuine question.

I'm not saying it's good to break the law, but I knew a guy that protested a lot. Was in riots. Threw petrol bombs, and stuff like that. Not saying it was me, just saying I know a guy that said he did.

Personally, I think we've lost so many freedoms that the only thing I'd be against would be tax increases. As BP says, I'm a tight a**e. As Barney says, I'm also a capitalist pig haha.
