i have a younger brother who even when he was10 years old would never eat meat he thought it wrong we had a maccy d he ate a carrot

he once lived in a tree for 6 months to try and stop some dual carraigeway from being built as it would destroy a pond where a rare newt lived



he went to malaysia and chained himself to a tree to stop a dam from being built , they put him in a jail for 3 months in a rat infested jail he lost half his body weight

as we grew up i think back i cant remember how many times i shook him by the coller and shouted at him to stop being a wierdo



now as the years have passed i look to the futer and i fear the world we leave behind for our children is dying and will sooon be dead he was right all along



and i wonder how he coped having such a stupid man and a weirdo for a brother :o :o

Thank You,,,, The hair is standing up on my arms, and there are tears in my eyes. You just zoomed me back to my era, and gave me a shot of life in my vein. In a time where it seems like no one joins together for anything anymore... I often feel dead and like Im walking around like a zombie, Makes me wannna take on the ignoramous legislators in Virgina who sleeps in the law taking away rights from same sex couples. Homosexual, Heterosexual, or anything sexual. They can get away with it nowdays because everyone is so apathetic but they wouldnt have gotten away with it back then.

I am scared to death of our government. And I have been talking. They are gradually, sneakily, taking away our constitutional rights. We in America are lulled into submission because of the cushy lives we lead compared to so many other people. That and the fact that a huge percentage of our youth is drugged and helpless. Which was the plan set into motion to cripple us 30 years ago.
