str8 from the email files: FW: DON'T BUY GAS ON MAY 19TH

IT HAS BEEN CALCULATED THAT IF EVERYONE IN THE UNITED STATES DID NOT
PURCHASE A DROP OF GASOLINE FOR ONE DAY AND ALL AT THE SAME TIME, TH! E OIL
COMPANIES WOULD CHOKE ON THEIR STOCKPILES.


AT THE SAME TIME IT WOULD HIT THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY WITH A NET LOSS OF OVER
4.6 BILLION DOLLARS WHICH AFFECTS THE BOTTOM LINES OF THE OIL COMPANIES.


THEREFORE MAY 19TH HAS BEEN FORMALLY DECLARED "STICK IT UP THEIR behind "
DAY AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION SHOULD NOT BUY A SINGLE DROP OF GASOLINE
THAT DAY.


THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE DONE IS IF YOU FORWARD THIS E-MAIL TO AS MANY
PEOPLE AS YOU CAN AND AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN TO GET THE WORD OUT.


WAITING ON THIS ADMIINSTRATION TO STEP IN AND CONTROL THE PRICES IS NOT
GOING TO HAPPEN. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE REDUCTION AND CONTROL IN PRICES THAT
THE ARAB NATIONS PROMISED TWO WEEKS AGO?


REMEMBER ONE THING, NOT ONLY IS THE PRICE OF GASOLINE GOING UP BUT AT THE
SAME TIME AIRLINES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES, TRUCKING COMPANIES ARE
FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES WHICH EFFECTS PRICES ON EVERYTHING THAT IS
SHIPPED. THINGS LIKE FOOD, CLOTHING, BUILDING MATERIALS, MEDICAL SUPPLIES
ETC. WHO PAYS IN THE END? WE DO!


WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. IF THEY DON'T GET THE MESSAGE AFTER ONE DAY, WE
WILL DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN.


SO DO YOUR PART AND SPREAD THE WORD. FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO EVERYONE YOU
KNOW. MARK YOUR CALENDARS AND MAKE MAY 19TH A DAY THAT THE CITIZENS OF THE
UNITED STATES SAY "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH"

We need to do something because this is OUTRAGEOUS. Didn't we kill all those people in Irag for oil..damn why Bush can't put some out on the streets for us common folk!!!!!

Peace

what i say:
I'm with whatever. we need a plan...i think this will work if enough people adhere to it...i think this would send a message to the gov.
trickle down econ is supposed to pacify us common folk....but you know and i know, that shit has never worked...not even during the drafting of the constitution when trickle down economics was introduced....
the poor will always be that..poor!

hell im still waiting on Bush to acknowledge reparations....he has yet to do that.....he's worried about his pockets....i say bush, cheney,,got damn haliburton can all suck my DICKTRACY!!!

o sorry bout the rant...lol

caught on tape

i'm not sure who follows the news reports..as bogus as the news is.

but in recent news there has been talk about the beheading of one of our soldiers. of course floating around the internet is the "alleged" video of the actual event.

being who i am i opted to click the link to watch what was being taken place. however, i normally post links to everything..but this time i will not post any links to this particular tragedy. why? it goes like this: it had been a long time since i surfed the net, checked out some of my fav forums. well last night i did that. okayplayer being one of my stops...i had an interesting conversation regarding what happened in iraq.

there seems to be mixed views surrounding those who watched the video and those who wouldn't. no i said those who wouldn't not didn't. the argument goes: one side is saying the reason they chose to view the video was out of curiosity and a need to know what exactly goes on in REAL life. opposers said: it was highly disrepectful and those who watched have no respect for that life which was taken away so tragically. added to that- it was also compared to a circus sideshow act: "yes, a man being killed in a rather horrible way" is a curiosity, much like a circus sideshow often referred to in the same way. step right up and take a look through the hole in the wall to see something aMAZing."

this is where i disagreed. i agree that this should not be taken out of context and viewed as some cool stunt installment of faces of death. however, i do think it should be viewed by all "americans." turn on bbc news and your gauranteed to see the same images if not worse ones on regular prime time news. why in america are we so pot bellied and pacified that we deem it immoral to view this particular image? why yes we can sit and watch texas chainsaw massacre(by the way-this really happened in texas) and mock what is happening on screen. why it was okay for old masters to gather round the burning pit or an old tree to watch the good ole lynching of a NIGGA!

so once again AMERICANS are shook by a video. one of which we don't know if it really happened. the same way americans were shook after 911. where you this shook when james byrd was dragged to his death? mind you the james byrd tragedy happened just a few years ago. where you really this shook reading the slave narratives or seeing mass haitians being thrown from ships into the ocean....

i'm saying stop whining and do something about it. if you don't like the way something is going down- spark change! sparking change is not criticizing those with opposite views.

"on another note...i'm not here to justify anything.i watched the video because i felt it necessary
just as if there was a posted link to the actual
resurrection of jesus. i'd watch that too...just to see it
for myself. doesnt mean i lack respect. i simply want to know."

for those who want to know or see i will give info on where to find it but out of repect i will not broadcast that energy on this site. we can verse about it..because i'd like to know where others stand on this issue.
