"Freeze the Media Day" in Two Weeks! (may 9)author: anonymous "Freeze the Media Day" is when people all around the country drop superglue and toothpicks into the money slots of slimy corperate media newspaper dispensers. This is a statement to figures who like to put themselves in places of power that the power still remains with the people and that we can still tear down any institutions we feel the need to because the were built over the labor on our backs. This is also a message to them that we won't tolerate the bullshit spins they put out to keep us in a constants state of fear and obediance. This is a nationwide event, and we're looking for solidarity everywhere to help spread this empowering message.

Why don't you empower yourself by learning how to spell?

My, how low some folks will go!! I haven't read more condensed ignorance in one article in my life.
Your ignorance is going to enslave the rest of the populace! Pick up a book sometime and read the stuff around the pictures. You might benefit society that way!

I'm not quite sure how this really stops the "slimy corperate media newspapers", when you clearly know that the "little guys" will be the ones out there cleaning up your messes. By "sticking it to the man", you're screwing over the working class heroes who do all the work...maintain the boxes, deliver the papers, drive the trucks, etc...BRAVO!!!
Posted by: anonymous at Apr 28, 2005 10:51
Yeah, go ahead and disrupt the work days of hard-working newspaper distributors and deliverymen who will lose valuable time off their clocks dealing with your mindless vandalism. That'll show 'em. Have any of you idiots ever worked for a living?
Posted by: X at Apr 28, 2005 11:11
Yea, man, I'm gonna show those slimy newspapers how has the REAL power in Amerikkka!
Hah! Right!
You guys should stick with what you know best - how to roll joints, do bong hits and drink beer.

Don't worry.. it'll never happen. These idiots will probably spend more time sniffing the glue than using it.

"Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm -- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves." – T.S. Eliot.

But warn your pals in Florida not to rush me when I catch them at it. Cause I'm gonna feel REAL Threatened.
Posted by: Felix Rodriguez at Apr 28, 2005 12:44
You boys should too. Or take some lysol with you so you don't catch something non-terminal. Or, as an earlier commentator suggested, continue to sniff the glue.
Not that I care about your well-being, but since few of you actually pay for your own health care I would prefer that you didn't get sick.

that leftist, socialist, "democrat" types can never actually CREATE. They seem to only be able to destroy. Way to go! that's getting your message across... lol

So, what would you clueless birdbrains achieve by this when most of print news is on-line anyway? It's not like you'll shut down access to the news or thinking for a day with your goofy gluey toothpicks. Playing Commando Che of Operation Toothpicks for a day is lame.
Here's some better advice: take the edge off by consuming more time with your acne management regimes, finish high school(you're probably too cognitively impaired for college)and plot some way to have a life where you can quit sucking off your parents.

Liberals, doing the crimes and soft on crime!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: david anfinrud at Apr 28, 2005 13:21
The liberals planning this must think it is freedom of speech. Just like ELF (which started a fire 5 miles from me because they cut down 3 trees to build a home) They are making their voices heard that the press is not liberal enough. Hey Libs stop buying the newspaper and they may change their editorial page. Guess what I stopped buying the paper because it was too liberal. Destruction is not the answer it proves you are the problem.

Hey, anonymous...take you head out of your ass.
