11. I don't want a draft, I have a son, but I think that's the missing
impetus for getting a movement going. There are diehard protestors, especially here (which is why I like it so much), but we are the overenlightened ones. Too many others are lulled asleep, they see nothing that affects them personally in the whole thing. UNTIL they do, its not going to be worth risking employment or liberty to fight for.

In Lieu of a draft, we need some "pearl harbor" of our own that wakes the sleeping giant. What it needs to be? I have no idea, I would have thought they would awakened by now.
