Anathema
Crotchety Olde Man
Our country was built on these kinds of action. Had you been around in the 1700s you would have been a Torry for sure. Rebellions are wrong. Starting a new country without the approval from the King is wrong. I can see you now, standing there yelling at Thomas Paine telling him how wrong he was. Or yelling at Rosa Parks telling her how wrong she was for sitting in that seat.
The United States was founded by Revolution against an immoral Government. That's a very different thing than what went on with these school kids who were protesting AGAINST a Constitutionally protected Right.
As for Mr Paine, I would suggest to him thst he needs to lay out the duties and responsibilities of a Citizen as much as he does their Rights.
