An unhinged mob

[vulcanlogician]

Almost everything (if not everything) that was said in the OP video was taken out of context. Corey Booker saying, "You need to get up in your congressman's face" was obviously meant to mean that constituents need to make their political desires known to their representatives in a proactive and explicit way. Do you think Booker meant that literally?

That kinda does seem to be the way it is being taken.

Talk to some of the forum users who live in France or Spain. We Americans tend to sit on our fat asses, expecting politicians to solve our problems, whilst Europeans often take a more proactive approach. They demand a better government. And (for the most post) I think Europe has left us in the dust as far as social infrastructure goes. We have a bloated, inefficient welfare state, while they have a robust social system that meet the needs of many of their citizens. They get better results because they demand better results.

All the OP video is doing is fear mongering. I think it's good that people are assembling with the purpose to affect the bureaucratic process.
