So... ummm... mass lynchings? What does "direct action" mean? I assume that means taking the law into your own hands, which is kind of what five white guys just did.

Ooh, ooh! Can we blare loud music at Congress the way they got Noriega to leave Panama? How about adding that blast wave thing that makes you feel like puking if you don't disperse? Someone could set up a few along K Street and claim it's a new form of pest control.

I'm not going to stop voting. Too many people died or got beat up to get me that right. I don't piss on my ancestors' graves (especially the ones that built the interfaith cemetery where I already have a plot... don't ask).

The annoying slam to the lunatic right has gone about as far as commerce can stand. Texas is turning roads back to gravel because they refuse to raise the taxes for highway maintenance. That's a signature end-of-civ move. When you annoy enough businesses, things happen.
