"Backlash" is the voice of WE THE PEOPLE! All of these demonstrations across the country, all of the outraged citizens speaking out at Town Halls in our 50 states, we have power.

This power must be encouraged when faced with reckless indifference that lacks any empathy for all people.

Yes, at times in all this, with so many different things going on, it seems as if it is impossible to make headway when fighting back, but journalism, demonstrations, calls to our representatives, it all adds up and ,at least SOME of the time, it is effective. Hard to keep at it, though, but we must. If we don't, it is like a statement that WE don't believe in democracy.

Yes, we can use our voices and become full participants in the 3rd branch of our government, the legislative branch, and be responsible for the laws that govern us.
