"Should Ever Be Forgot."

Just because things mostly went well is no reason to forget what today is.

People upset by Proposition 8 Results, remember: "Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God." --Thomas Jefferson

"The oppressed should rebel, and they will continue to rebel and raise disturbance until their civil rights are fully restored to them" --Thomas Jefferson

Today is November Fifth.

[WAIT! slackmistress has important information: "400K votes are needed to defeat Prop 8. There are 3-4 million provisional & absentee votes to be counted. http://www.noonprop8.com/headlines/results-status/"

So, Wait. Breathe. Calm. Await All Results.]

Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I can think of no reason
Why the Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t'was his intent
To blow up the King and Parli'ment.
Three-score barrels of powder below
To prove old England's overthrow;
By God's providence he was catch'd
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, let the bells ring.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!


As the man said: People shouldnt fear their governments, Their governments should fear their people.
