If Ed Brown dies then so do I.

[Bald Eagle]

I mean, are you going to bring as many people with you as possible?

Huh?  Are you?

[SAK]

I don't believe in suicide.  I think it's as unnatural as it gets.

If you want to protest this, then start a serious hunger strike.  Eat nothing, and drink lots and lots of water.  Take it easy physically on your body, and make sure you get news coverage that you're doing it.

I can not and do not support you in any way if you seek only to kill yourself in suicide.  If you wish to do such a thing, then do it, but don't associate yourself with good people like Ed and Elaine.  They would not support it either, and would have nothing to do with you (with the exception of perhaps trying to dissuade you and talk some sense into you).

If you're trying to show courage, or better yet if you really do have such courage, then put it to good use.  If you kill yourself, it will only hurt us all and make Ed and Elaine look bad.  Why not do everything you can to make sure nothing happens to Ed and Elaine?  If you change your mind about your course of action, I'd be happy to help.  If you intent on committing suicide, then I can have nothing more to do with you or this discussion.  Make the right decision, for a lot is at stake.

Nope only myspace....We can find out if the goverment cares about the life of one innocent person.

[Bald Eagle]

Hey - Jay Mick is obvioulsy under tremendous pressure.  His brain may explode under the tremendous pressure at any moment.

So, you're right.  He shouldn't associate with the Browns in case some filthy fed whacks him or something and his brain takes out everything within a mile radius.  That would be terrible and make the Browns look bad, what, with all the nice landscaping and scenery they've worked so hard all of their lives to legitimately earn.

Right?

[Caleb]

Please don't kill yourself. Of course the government doesn't care about you. The government has enough blood on their hands already; one more drop of blood is insignificant in their eyes, but to God you are precious.

I would recommend a general strike:  See how many of us we can get to stop spending money and try to bring down their economy if they do this bad thing.

[AlexLibman]

Great, another attention-starved kid creating an anonymous forum account to get off on promising self-immolation or whatnot.  I can certainly relate to it on emotional level, but on a rational level this is a very degrading thing to do, and it degrades the rest of the forum as well.  So, nothing to see here folks!  Move along!

Yes, we are all angry about the state of the nation in general and the Ed Brown situation in particular, each of us in our own way.  Yes, some of us may take constructive action in response.  We all think for ourselves, we all decide our own level of commitment.  This is not a support group, nor is it a place for a pissing contest of baseless radical claims!

Killing yourself probably won't do any good, but standing in front of the line of tanks just might.

[Bald Eagle]

How much money can we make THEM spend to do this thing, if they're going to do it.  Wars are economic.  Reagan out-spent Russia and won the cold war.  When you run out of gas and food and water and bullets....

Also, the more of We the People's money they spend, the harder it is to justify.

[Atlas]

I mean, are you going to bring as many people with you as possible?

Huh?  Are you?

W/o getting too deep here, I must admit that if I made a commitment like this there would be some statists comin with. And because I'm a God-fearing person, suicide won't get ya where ya want to be in the end. I originally thought ya the man was gonna go down (possibly) with Brown.

[KBCraig]

Ill take one for the team.

Please, let my wife know if you need first aid. She's a pro at this.

[LordBaltimore]

Great headline potential, eh?

"Cult follower of Ed Brown makes suicide pact."

See my avatar. Now that's what I call ballsy.

Exactly. If you're determined to die with them, go and help the Browns.

But please, folks, let's not go crazy about this. Violent revolution will not work - witness Somalia.

[Braddogg]

At least he's DOING something!

[Kat Kanning]

You mean he's doing something other than whining? 

[LordBaltimore]

At least he's DOING something!

Too bad it's not something constructive.
