Once went across to China from Hong Kong wearing a tshirt with the word "Tibet" on it..... not the brightest thing I've done after being detained at the border and interrogated for hours.
Walked on the grass with the "Do not walk on grass" sign.
I stuck it to the man
both........whatever manifestation they've had since 1970
Even Michael Foot.......
I did that as well.......but not for any political reason, just couldn't be bothered going
When I worked at a high school, three boys were permanently excluded for 'drug dealing' (small quantities of cannabis, just supplying their friends, it was just their turn I guess). Then the governors reinstated them on the grounds that it was a first offence and they had all been very contrite and promised not to do it again. A group of staff and parents - it felt like about 1000 of them, but couldn't really have been- called an outraged meeting to organise official protests and demand that these evil pushers were removed forever. I was so angry at what I felt was a huge overreaction that I stood up and made a long and angry speech attacking the whole thing. It was so nerve-racking that I could hear my voice shaking. You could see that no one liked it (or me) much, but the meeting kind of fizzled out amidst angry mutterings and dirty looks in my direction, and in the end the boys were returned to the school without any problems. Some person or people complained about me to the head and I was called in for an interview (I had said that this kind of 'dealing' was really common, and that quite a few of the boys in the school would have taken a turn at getting the stuff for the others, and he demanded that I NAME NAMES), but that fizzled out as well because I just sat looking blank and he gave up.
Will remember those days for the rest of my life with a mixture of pride and sadness
Well, an e-petition.
Can't even remember what it was for (or against).
I am so anti-establishment..
But you voted for the establishment?:D
These days I just smoke it in private.
Until I got a court summons and then I paid up
Power to the people! (And all that).
I also didn't pay my poll tax, I was called to court and dozens of us together got shoved into the court, they were doing mass hearings,lol I payed up of course, but my protest had been heard.
