I don’t want to discourage yelling, because it’s better than shooting, but I can’t help but be dispirited. I mean, folks are already out there yelling at politicians, and it seems like the politicians just ignore them. There’s supposed to be some kind of critical mass where enough people yell and they stop being ignored, but it seems like no matter how many people are yelling, there’ll keep needing to be more of a critical mass, more of a critical mass, it’s not working because you’re not trying hard enough, try harder, spend more time, spend more money.
