Eric Cantona: Kill the banks-France activists to withdraw all money on Dec 7th

[Peter Lemkin]

I completely understand where you're both coming from, honest.

But for me personally, the potential suffering and bloodshed of the innocent that would result is too terrible to contemplate to warrant assisting chaos along its shadow Via Reggia.

I always prefer to suggest more moderate and progressive ways forward and I don't think these are impossible either - but yes, they are more fraught with difficulties.

But the base point has to be that no one wants to suffer another Hitler, Stalin or Robespierre and, in the final analysis, we should be smart enough to have learned from history rather than simply repeat it.

Understood, but the anger level is at boiling point for more and more, and for each person it is also a matter of what they have or lack. You have a nest-egg and [I presume] secure home [and happy you do and only envious I don't]. I've just about nothing [in fact I'm fighting anew to not have my tiny bank account and just-about-nothing personal property seized - a last ditch battle engaged as I write; the greater part of what I once had all stolen long ago in USSA]; but either way I'll never again really have notin' but my wits and my dog - if I'm lucky a computer....so have little left to loose.... :motz:

I'll bet those in USA [and elsewhere] who were robbed of their jobs, rights, homes, health, loved ones, land, dignity, sovereignty, and savings [often all the above] would not be put off by the idea of creating chaos with the system that abandoned them, and let the cow chips fall where they may. :bandit:

The Hitlers and Stalin's are out there waiting as we speak.....and that is what we'll get in short order if we do nothing or not enough or not fast enough...so I say take the risk! Yes, try the least likely damaging steps first; but keep trying new ones and FAST, until the whole system is stopped....and before it destroys us, what little rights/freedoms we have, and all life, in fact.

"There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part; you can't even passively take part, and you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!" - Mario Savio 1964, Berkeley, CA [just after the JFK Assassination - not a coincidence, IMO]
