Thought more of you Ruby, that response has EXCUSE written all over it.

The problem with ACTIVIST, is they seek their fifteen minutes of fame at ANY cost.

Yea, now she IS a celebrity, congratulation................

Well an activist is SEEKING attention for the cause and action as well...that would require wide spread communication and therefore a well known activist is indeed somewhat famous, but thats different than celebrity.

Also, it is YOUR assumption that they just want attention and they dont truly care for their cause...I would suspect that you feel this way because you DISAGREE with their cause and their point of view and not because they have done anything to indicate they arent actually dedicated to their cause.

I bet you dont view activists you agree with in the same way at all. The squeaky wheel gets the grease ! Did Martin L. King "just" want attention? Rosa parks? Jane Addams? Frederick Douglas? Aung San Suu Kyi? Mahatma Gandhi? Nelson Mandela? They are all famous activists, not celebrities just well known activists.
