42. Please tell us how 'redress of grievances' is still in play?
- Protestors are rounded up and put in 'pens' where they can't be heard by the government OR the free press. They're shot, gassed and 'investigated'.

- Your cartoon stereotype of fascism doesn't apply in modern times...when populations can be controlled by means other than 'hunting down and silencing'. Citizens don't need to be 'silenced' in a country where the government media won't report what they have to say.

- Call it a 'kinder, gentler' fascism. Stop thinking in terms of goons going around with guns silencing people. This simply isn't necessary in a time when the media works for the government.
