I think we should protest with sings taped to shotguns. I will show you where my free speech zone will be. As I walk to it.
Patriots stand together for their own good. They do not remain apathetic and divided until the powers that be unite them to support their agendas.

The revolution will not be televised.
Unity will help remove some pessimism. We know not what the people want nor do we know how the people think and feel, all we know is what we are told on the propaganda box's (TVs).

Gandhi was a pacifist, an Indian (from India) and therefore of coloured ethnicity, a Hindu, and he was regarded as "a rabble rouser" by the establishment. So on all these counts Gandhi would not have lasted 5 minutes in Nazi Germany (if that is what you are asking).
But it must also be said that for someone like Gandhi to emerge there has to be environmental conditions for ideas to form and action to be taken. Gandhi was a product of India and South Africa as it was in the times he was living. If, by some remote possibility, Gandhi, or someone like him, had grown and developed in Germany in the 1930/40's he still would not have lasted 5 minutes. There was no environment in Germany to foster someone like Gandhi, in fact, the exact opposite was true.
We are all products of our own time and place.

If you are asking how long Ghandi would have lasted in Nazi Germany, when his solution to the Jews was for there to be Civil Disobedience, then the answer would be about as long as it took the German Army to surround a guetto, and move in, killing everyone.

Where does Gandhi fit in all this?
What this is saying is all true and good but the government won't pay me for a day's loss

He didn't last too long in India either.

liberal hogwash, and as a Pennsylvanian I might ask where was Shanksville mentioned in that piece.
