I have been sidelined with regard to what is happening in the political world, but I found this very interesting.
Years ago the people of Tennessee told their legislators they didn't want certain legislation. They wrote letters, they called and they faxed. The legislators persisted, so the people emailed until the system crashed. The legislators said they didn't care what the people wanted; they were going to do it anyway. With all other avenues exhausted the citizens drove to the capital where the legislators cowered in their offices refusing to hear them. That led to days and weeks of constant horn honking and protestors at the state Capitol building. The people prevailed and the whole episode spawned a whole new group of candidates and activists that have continued to greatly influence the direction of my state.
Seems another group of people are tired of being ignored.
