Who agrees with me. Diplomacy has been tried. Revolt.
My Buschmaster and P226 is ready. (x |

| What would the goals of the revolt be, and how would it be carried out? |

Goals: Install a true Republic, along with Lassiez Faires Capitalism.
It would be carried out the same way it was in the American Revolution. Sadly, we are waiting for people to stand up as a leader. |

You should be the leader. You'd probably have a lot of like-minded supporters. |

| Yes, maybe so. Problem is, I am not exactly Glenn Beck or someone who has thousands of dollars that could go towards funding a revolt. |

| You don't need fancy equipment to have a revolution. Did the Russians, the French, the Americans need that? No. Stop putting yourself down, get a gun, shoot a Democrat politician and proclaim your new libertarian utopia! |

| Not exactly the easy really. One man who does something bad would be viewed as a mad man, rather than a revolutionary. |

| @Diamond, yes we'll have something similar to Marcus Licinius Crassus. Expect your entire neighborhood to be burnt down and bought for 90% off it's actual worth. |

How do you expect a revolution to succeed if you can't take bold and brave steps forward? If you are committed to a revolution, you don't just sit on internet forums and talk! Alright, you might not want to outright kill people. But do you have a plan at all?
Do you have a plan or are you just like the 'revolutionaries' on RevLeft? |

To most liberals, by not worshipping Obama you're already considered a right wing extremist. You've got nothing to lose by actually picking up arms. Do you want a revolution or not?

Shooting a politician is not starting a revolt. A thought, that however, is the beginning of a revolt.
1. Realization 2. Thought 3. Organization 4. Riot 5. Revolt
That is my plan for America. Midmyst, It'd be nice to meet on a revolutionary battlefield some day. (X

"The cost of freedom is always high,"
Just please be aware of that before you start a revolution. |

Extremely vague. Could you elaborate on this plan so we can get something more specific? |

| That's a bad idea. This isn't like in the 1700s where the citizens had the same equipment as the soldiers, a musket. These days, citizens only have pistols, rifles, and shotguns. The military has explosives and machine guns. |

You know how easy it is to...nvm....NSA. But primarily the Military puts their firearms on the semi automatic mode.
Midmyst, that is vague, but until I meet people serious, a plan will not be developed. |

Even if you don't want to use violence right away (or at all) there's still the possibility of a peaceful revolution. It's happened before; most of the Eastern bloc countries for example. Many revolutions started out peaceful and then, when they got powerful enough, used violence to dispose of the tyrant.
So if you want to at least do something for this revolution, you should organize a protest or something. I know it's easier said than done. But you're not going to accomplish anything waiting around on Roblox and writing manifestos with a grand total of 5 words. |

I think there was a book that inspired a revolution...
I think it was called: Touch Me Not. |

I found a website with an article on how to organize a protest:
Not only are rallies exciting and fun, but they also bring a bunch of people together for an awesome cause.
Purpose Before the rallying begins, there should be a cause you want to spread awareness of. Media attention is super important because it allows you to reach more people about your cause.
Plan it Try to avoid days where there are sports games, musical concerts, or tournaments. Pick an area that can hold a lot of people. Call your local police station to find out if you need a permit. Recruit a team of supervisors/staff/volunteers to help out. If there will be bands or guest speakers, who will they be and how will they be heard. Think: podium, speakers, mics, sound system, etc. Be prepared to clean up after the event. Contact reports and media members a week or so prior to the event. Speak Try to get a powerful speaker to attend your event. An inspiring panel can add different insights, stories and perspectives.
Spread the word Create a “group” emale list that includes your official and community group contacts (including potential speakers), plus friends, family members and co-workers. Distribute updates about your event to this group, and encourage them to forward your emails to people they know.
Post flyers around the neighborhood, at community centers, on school and church bulletin boards. Everywhere!
Petition Create a petition for your cause that you can pass around at the rally for people to sign. Or you create one online – just don’t forget to attach it to your emale. For tips on how to write or start a petition, check out our tipsheet here.
Rally Make sure there's a schedule of events. Have all the right permits and that the police are down with your peaceful assembly. Have flyers handy with some facts about your cause. |

| If you're committed to the revolution, you'll move to the city. Or, perhaps you can still get something done in the rural area; who knows? |
