Yes, the shutdown is a clarifying moment. Our compassionate chief executive is evicting the elderly from their homes, shuttering private businesses, trying to block access to scenery, along with a host of other petty, spiteful actions that give us the true measure of the small, brittle man in charge.

Vicious little twerp, isn't he?
And our watchdog media is giving him ample cover. It's who they are, and what they do--endless in-kind payments to one, and only one, political party, and relentless defense of the empty suit at the top.
Fortunately, there is an option to respond to some of it--civil disobedience. And here is a nice pictorial chronicle of civil disobedience in action.
Here's the thing: if you show that you're willing to eat a shit sandwich, then that's what you're going to get.
So stop eating.

Be reasonably civil. Ire alloyed with reason is fine. But slagging the host gets you the banhammer.
