I personally like the flag bandanas. It is not even really a flag now is it? It would be like saying a shirt that looks like a flag, is a flag. It’s not, it’s imitating something. Anyways, I think the flag symbolizes that we are seen as the bad guys and we are considered the insurgents. If that’s what you wanna call us, that’s fine, we embrace it. We cover so we can do what we must in our own way without being individualized (don’t know if that’s a word) and be part of something bigger than ourselves.

I like seeing all the discussion, and just wanted to add my two cents. I see the bandanna wearing as a sense of unity among the people. Yes, the message is militant, but the key points are peaceful actions, and working together. We are all different people under the bandana, but we can join together for a cause greater than ourselves.

I see what this cartoon is saying but looking at it as a Brit it seems naive, cheesy and I hate to say it childish. The gang of neckerchief do gooders giving a tramp (bum) food ect just amplifies this for me.

Wow, I really like that Hezbamas post lashing out about the character of a former US MARINE!!! He put more than just his opinion on the line, Hezbamas. I strongly doubt you have the…character… to do more than talk.

Bye the Bye, I kinda get the impression this is a pro-obama comic dressed up to be about voting and change. I could care less either way, but really, the popular vote means nothing, didn’t you watch the last election? Don’t worry, the electoral college will pick the president, anything else is just a farce to make us believe we have some control. This election has already been decided, and not by the people. Just roll with the punches and don’t worry about it!

I love the comic strip. I am only a teenager yet i see the great things you talk about. I belive that these are the first steps to becoming the greatest nation, economicly, eviromentally, and above all socially. This is a beautiful thing you have going and are thrilled to read about people standing up for what they belive.

PEACE AND LOVE.

This One right here, sent the chills through my body. The chills of the wakeup.
The chills of unity.

great.

i love this whole idea. im not american, but i have american friends, and it frustrates me to see what could be a great country (because i know a bunch of great people who live there) going in such a bad direction. it’s comforting for people like us, who are in a country that isn’t powerful and has a weak military force, to know that there ARE people in the most powerful country in the world, who are looking for change, and getting active about it

I don’t know what to think about the Global Citizen line. Is it a reference to globalization, or environmentalism? I hope for the latter. Plus, the artwork in that same panel leads me to think it’s a reference to the environment. I can hope for the best, can’t I?

I don’t typically get into discussions out here on the internet….but I love the comic. It does make you think, and it is an outlet to express the feelings and testimonies of the artist and those who send in their stories. Hopefully it is another piece in the puzzle to “activate” your minds and encourage all to make a change for the bettter in a non-violent manner. I feel the anger that some are expressing…and it’s great that you all are so passionate, but, let’s not talk about killing people and instead light a new path of peaceful activism…be an example to the world to see…
