Welcome to National Sick-Out Day, 24/7
By sickout247
 Some have suggested a day to wear red, or pink, or blue. Some say I’ve dumbed down and should be an activist, carrying a placard, marching with banners, trying to voice a protest into the TV cameras (that are likely police posing as journalists). They see a need to be maced, hit by rubber bullets, beaten with clubs, sprayed with tear gas. I chose passive resistance by as many as will understand the power of expressing our withholding of consent to the national madness, the torture, the mismanagement, the lies, the coercion, the destruction of liberty and human rights. Stay home, even for just one day: Thursday, July 24, 2008. National Sick-Out Day, 24/7. Spread the word. Print this out and hand it to another person. Forward it as an e-mail. Discuss it with a fellow patriot. Passive resistance will make a difference. Cabbage Head.

Cabbage Head, you are a genius! Happy Sick Out Day! See you July 24 — well, no, I won’t see you because I will be home, being SICK of ALL THIS MESS. Cheers for you, Cabbage, “you’ve got a head on your shoulders!” Thanks!!
Yes, Jean, you understand what is at stake. CH
One hell of a fine idea posing infinite possibilities.
The real beauty of it is ‘protest by doing nothing’,NON-COMPLIANCE
Malachi4, you understand. Take it and explore the possibilities. CH

Dear Patriots:
If you Digg, support National Sick-Out Day, 24/7. Google, find, cut and paste to your favorite blogs. Spread the idea. Tell friends. Write 24/7 on slips of paper and hand to other Patriots. Passive resistance. Non-Compliance. There will be time to identify your specific concerns: war, economy, health, government secrecy, criminal politicians. All will follow. They cannot kill everyone in their homes, although they may try. Once an idea is out, it is like a jinn that cannot be stuffed back in the bottle. Send one e-mail a day. Press on, 24/7. Cabbage Head

First, mark your calendar, July 24, 2008. Then consider how passive resistance will apply to your primary concern. Example: should seniors stay home and be sure not to call the pharmacy, make medical appointments, attend exercise class, visit friends? How difficult will it be to spend one day contemplating your priorities, writing letters or e-mails to express your concerns, being part of a movement that offers few targets? This is a good place to tell others how you will observe National Sick-Out Day, 24/7 and withhold your consumer power. Or for teens, suppose you stayed home from school and made a list of the kinds of things that you want the world to become as you live your life in the future? What positive needs should be met? Or nurses, police, firemen, air traffic controllers, consider how one day of sick-out would creat short staffing situations and cause you to feel guilty about shirking duty? Do you know anyone who calls in sick the day before or day after a 3-day holiday? Which is the greater transgression: to call in sick to gain an additional personal day, or to call in sick and demonstrate July 24, 2008 that all is not well in the world and you seek changes? What will you do? Share your opinions, please. I am just a Cabbage Head and depend on the thoughts of many others. It is called democracy.

Step up. Stay home one day. Thursday, July 24, 2008. Post your cause, plant your feet. General dissatisfaction, general action, looks like a general strike but invisible. Think The Invisible Man meets The Evil Empire.
