Yikes. I think this means it's time to get the hell out of dodge.

They are sooooo busted.

Oh thank Dobbs for Albert! You changed my life! Please join me in a moment of silence! Careful, that's not a communion wafer...

Think of things in terms of physics. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. People who do value propelling themselves by their own steam via cycling, the natural world, personal accountability--those that oppose big oil, big government, and big business and such have been attacked for the past century by automobiles, trains, skyscrapers, and asshole cops decimating their natural habitat and threatening free thought and human autonomy with extinction.

Now, there is an equally unjust resistance forming. Consider automobiles to be -1 and bicycles to be +1. Critical Mass is an effort to make two integers cancel out. There is nothing fair about either side; these actions are justified by what they offset, not as isolated incidents.

Mass is not fair, but what is fair about the automobile thoroughfares and train tracks raping our collectively owned wilderness? For that matter, what is fair about property ownership in general? Mass give everyone an opportunity to think through some fundamental questions about American life.

Is this just in case Lennon comes back from the dead and wants to make some cash by playing shows and dropping his first name in a prince-esque leap of faith?

put it on mute and play some aphex twins

If you make the clerks uncomfortable or offended enough, they might quit. If enough clerks quit, it might be hard to fill those positions. If you can't hire clerks, it becomes more obvious just what a crappy system they're supporting. The guy made an ass of the police department with a fine anglo-saxon word on the memo line of a check. Mission accomplished.
