Please, for the sake of the economy, don't buy gas on may 15th. the're has been a planned uprising against the oil companies for gas is too much!!!! Almost $3.00!!! If enough people participate on may 15th we can make a difference. the last time it happened we took over 300 billion out of the oil companies pockets, so please no gas. oh and don't post if you don't mean it cuz those who don't are airheads

Do you think the boycotting will really help? I see this going around alot & was wondering you oppion on it. Here it is if you haven't seen it:

In April 1997, there was a "gas out" conducted nationwide in protest of gas prices.
Gasoline prices dropped 30 cents a gallon overnight.

On May 15th 2007, all myspace members are asked to not go to a gas station in protest of
high gas prices. Gas is now over $3.00 a gallon in most places.

There are 73,000,000+ American members currently on the myspace network, and the
average car takes about 20 to 30 dollars to fill up.

If all myspace members did not go to the pump on the 15th, it would take
$2,200,000,000.00 (that's BILLION) out of the oil companys pockets for just one day,
so please do not go to the gas station on May 15th and lets try to put a dent in the
Middle Eastern oil industry for at least one day.If you agree (which I cant see why you wouldnt) repost this bulletin repost it with
'Don't pump gas on May 15th

If it were possible at your job to live and work in the same building, would you do it? What do you think would be the advantages or disadvantages of doing this? They do this in Japan but they also work a massive amount of hours.

Why can't that man just read from his cue cards?

Almost every word that he says is a total embarrasment to our country.
They even have sites on the net quoting him saying the most outragious things like:
"Alquida never stops thinkin of ways to harm our country & neither do we"

He lives in hopes that someday man & fish can coexist.

it appears that all they want is for us to have another lost war on our hands.

Talk about some crap! Look at the numbers and try to defend the oil companies rising prices again.
Its supply and demand and we should just strike!

I've been hearing a lot of talk from Israeli media of a possible war coming this Summer with Syria and/or Iran. What are the indications/sources of this, especially such a specific timeframe? Do you think that this is likely or unlikely?

On May 15 we are asking everyone to NOT buy gas this whole day. As you probably know, gas prices have already reached $3.00 in most places, in an attempt to lower them we are boycotting gas for this one day. With your help this could be a success, please ask everyone you know not to buy gas on May 15. The last time this happened, gas prices were lowered 30cents!! But we need your help!

there are so many videos of police using excessive force and violence to people who are not a threat. i've seen cops straight up punch a guy in the face 10 times in a row while he's handcuffed and being held down by 2 other cops. like the PEACEFUL demonstration the Hispanic community had in LA this week and you see videos of cops using their batons just beating a guy who is of no threat to them. so back to my question, why do people make such a big deal about what Imus and whine and this and that.
