WHO THE F*CK WANTS TO MARCH?

While I sat fuming in my car, stuck in a massive jam on Saturday, I did not think to myself "Its okay. They are doing this for the abolishment of the ISA."

I thought "&%#$$?!?*&. These people deserved to be shot in the head for causing this jam."

No, this is not because I am PRO-ISA (as some people have claimed) but it is purely because I have always been anti street protests. I have always been because like I have said a million times before, and a million times now, it makes no F*king difference whether you go to the streets to show your dissatisfaction or not. In fact, the jam that you caused, the inconveniences that you caused, only made people who were sitting on the fence (and no pro government or pro opposition) MORE likely than not lean towards the ruling party.

Because simply put, if I were a trader in Masjid Jamek, where the protesters threw sand in my rice pots and broke my wares, I do NOT care if I will be arrested and put in detention without trial. It will more likely than not, not affect me because I am but a man trying to eke a living. I do not involve myself in politics. And frankly, I sit at home not wondering about laws like the ISA, in fact I sit at home and I wonder whether my business will be good tomorrow. Whether I can make enough money to support my family.

And when hordes of people attack my business on a so called mission to change a law, the likelihood of which will not affect me, I get bloody upset. I get pissed that my cash for that day is affected. Do you think I will be voting for you in the next general election? HAH!

I am not saying that people who are less educated, or are of a lower income can be easily bought (much like how some parties give out cash/cows/bicycles to win votes) but these people do not care about the abolishment of laws that will not affect them, or whether Anwar gets a fair trial or not, or whether Sivarasa is remanded or not. They care about their rice bowl. So PKR, what are you doing to protect my rice bowl? By marching on the streets? Holding rallies in Kelana Jaya? Getting everybody riled up and angry with the government? Then what happens when we go home? We still go home empty handed but with a fiery temper. Tomorrow when I go to work, I still suffer the same problems. Tomorrow my standard of living still does not improve.

Know your voters. Know your rakyat.

It is a BIG FALLACY to think that a bunch of people maching on the streets can EVER do it peacefully. Please. What were you born yesterday?? IN MALAYSIA?

Hah. You have GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.
