you can take part totally legal in civic organizations, wich actually does things to make the world better, see greenpeace, etc. And they must have lawyers, who are experts in the problems of legality (what is considered rebel, and what CAN you do). So you don't have to choose between apathy and illegality at first sight. you might end up on some kind of rebel, but join a reliable organization, consult their specialist about the chances and the why-s and the chances to achieve any change at first.\nYou're not alone. :D

Yes, because Americans have a short memory.  When something like that first happens, it's fresh in peoples minds so they feel compelled to do something about it.  But as times passes, people have their own problems to deal with so that leaves very little room for other problems.  Plus, people assume that the government is doing something about it and alot of people think they are only one person, how could they help.

How can it be wrong to be something you have no control over? And who decides what is "right or wrong" anyway. We are what we are.

i believe in certain situations it would be permissable. for example, if what somebody is doing affects another person or group in a negative way then the government should be allowed to step in. the government works for us as a whole, not each individual person. we are allowed certain freedoms and to do most things the way we want to but there are limits on everything. if protecting society by limiting one person's freedoms is the best plan of action then the government should have every right to do so

The conflict comes from trying to control what we have no business controlling and cannot even though we try.\nfor we have no control and that is scaary, we cannot control population, religion or an out of control government and uncontrollable spending.

Hormones for one, and the natural process of becoming independent for another, which requires asserting independence. Rebelling is really nothing more than that - asserting independence. The unfortunate thing is that we don't realize how much we DON'T know until we get a little older. Another unfortunate thing is that this natural process can become VERY ugly if the teen has a lot of built up anger over past issues. We say that children are resilient, but what they are doing is bottling it up, and it WILL come out eventually. But, even perfectly healthy teens will rebel in some ways.

As an American I have to add that I believe it is better for the American people that the British government  to be more leery in their support of American government.  When your government doesn't openly question my government, American and British citizens both lose.\n\nLet's face it, we have fought together in many battles, we have pledge our lives to protect each other...why can't we disagree on some issues?  Wouldn't disagreement on some issues be more healthy?

The individual is forced to make decisions about their own life. Nobody is going to make the decisions for you. You need to actually think for yourself. You need to decide how your actions will affect you and the folks you care about. Anarchy requires independent thinkers not SHEEP!

People need to stop depending on government, and solve their own problems - then low taxes are possible

My actions are very deliberate and never without a cause. When I rebel, it is to something I am very passionate about; otherwise, it is not worth the energy.

=because even though this is a free country, and we refer to free society, government and society rule all of us because "they" know what is best for each and every one of us!!!  Evidently we are not responsible enough for decision making, so "they" do it for our own well being.

No, unfortunately they have often been found to be lying or bending the truth to suit themselves. \n\nWe have done some of the most horrible things in this world. Like assinate leaders of other countries, started wars on false statements or on outright lies, we have used atomic bombs & other horrible weapons, we pay countries money to get our way, we even possibly have had people killed like Marilyn Monroe or JFK for reasons that are poor at best. There are loads more, but you get the idea.\n\nDo we have good things that come from our Government, YES. But am I blind and stupid, NO. There is nothing wrong with seeing the Bad and Good. There is also nothing wrong with Critisizing the Government.\n\nAnd for those that tell me to "do something about it" I have and continue to do that, so please don't patronize me, you don't know me or what I do.

Maybe we just need to ask for less government intervention in our lives

Why has government been instituted at all? Because the passions of men will not conform to the dictates of reason and justice, without constraint. -- Alexander Hamilton\n\nShays’ Rebellion had a lot to do with changing their minds.  Without a stronger “Union” they (United States) had little power to put down the uprising.\n\nOn the other hand, Confederations are very weak forms of government.  To put things into perspective, many confederations have been tried throughout world history, but none survive today.  The main reason is because states maintained their full sovereignty. Since they were all individual nations, there was little motivation for allegiance to each other.  This is especially true when it came to commerce among the states.  Also the articles were very limited when it came to what they regulated, and had definitive language that would prove to be obsolete over the years.  The Founders wanted something that would last.

I'm a conservative, and I don't care what anyone else does.  Not at all.  I think we all have to make our own choices and live our own lives.  What bothers me, though, is when all the people who choose to live self-destructive lifestyles - embracing drugs, excessive alcohol, etc. - expect society to bail them out of the messes they get themselves into.  We ALL need to take responsibility for our own actions.

I think the government is to blame.  If they would enforce the law as it stands, we would not be having these issues.\nNow they want new laws.  If they aren't obeying the current laws, why should they obey new ones?  It just \ndoes not make sense.
