Perhaps you haven’t seen my movies from Camping Out In Front Of Eldred yet.
There’s a comprehensive video/article in the works, but I don’t mind you peeking at the usable footage. (Yes it was too dark — I had to lighten it up in Premiere. Yes it’s one of the first films after taking a nearly ten year hiatus and yes, you can really tell.)
And yes, I am still pretty upset about the whole thing. But we gave it our best shot, right? And because of this, I know that I will feel just a little bit better when I’m explaining to the children of the future about what happened because I’ll be able to tell them truthfully that we didn’t go down without a fight.
It will be just like when I’m trying to explain to them about a world that used to exist before the soon-to-be-state-of-perpetual War. It will feel better than if I had done nothing and had to explain how we all just rolled over and let our country be stolen away from us from a man who was never elected.
I will be able to say proudly that we fought very hard to stop it from happening — and I think it will feel better. Then.
I don’t feel so good now though — about either situation.
