Why not have a week of Rage?
Starting on a Monday, to accomplish something meaningful?

It's not a real day of rage unless there are buildings set on fire and journalists beaten and raped.

There will only be 'rage' when these hipsters run out of vegan wraps and soy lattes.

Isn't the coffee party filled with Obama supporters? Thus, shouldn't they be protesting his crony paybacks to Solyndra, LightSquared, Unions, etc....? Or will they include Obama's corruption and a call for it to stop while also protesting Congress?

US Day of Rage - Main

US Day of Rage Readying Peaceful Occupation of Wall Street on Sept. 17th

Your opinions please. Will this accomplish anything?
I have to wonder why this "Day of Rage" had to be held on September17. Why not September 10 or 24. I think I know why but most Americans don't know why for an obvious reason. I say it is because September 17 is the anniversary day of the signing of the Constitution of the United States. This date has been called Constitution Day for all these years but some don't want that to be true any longer and this is a part of the attempt to kill off our Constitution and all it has caused to be American.

How many knew about this special day before reading my words?

How ironic that most of the people that will participate in the "rage" are generally folks that hate everything the Constitution of the United States stands for!

You just said what I wanted to say. Not only do those people not know what today really is, their leaders are very happy that they don't.

It is too bad that they and most of the other people in the country don't know about the historical significance of today.

How long before nobody knows about Constitution Day and it can be wiped away by the progressive politicians who are working so hard on doing that right now?
