I don't know what else to call this thread, but wanted to voice an opinion on this. In years past, activists were coming from everywhere, and in many fields. People inspired by the wave of social media access sprang from cities, counties, towns and the countryside to become involved in patriot related causes. For some, the only involvement was spreading the word. Others staged protests, scheduled and held events, or attended the events of others. The internet was abuzz with ideas and actions. But then resistance arose, and setbacks arrived in the way of new restrictions and stronger enforcement of older ones. In addition, some seemingly unjust arrests and convictions occurred, futher inhibiting the previous fervor for activism. Soon, a turnaround took hold, and the will and desire began to droop. At present, the will has fallen to a new low. Well, maybe it's not a new one, and I have just forgotten what it was like to be one of the sheep. It's hard to tell, because when you're a sheep, you don't really know you can be something else.
So now the question is, just how did we lose the enthusiasm for our causes? Was it the wolves reassurtion of their dominance? How about us just fulfilling a natural cycle of growth and dormancy, or growth and retardation? Maybe it's just as simple as our attention span. People have always been slave to their whims, and maybe this whim has followed the path of a new restaurant in town. We tend to get caught up in crazes it seems. Still yet, is it possible we all think we have fulfilled our mission of bringing our causes to the forefront, and have moved on to greater ones?
I don't know why people have dropped from sight on this particular issue, but my observances have pointed to the same attitudes in other patriot related causes. I find it interesting that the involvement has dropped nearly across the board at nearly the same time periods. I'd swear someone is putting something in our air, water, or food, because I have to strain through a zillion more people to find someone still willing to put up a fight.
