52. People are ejected from small towns every day.
You've never heard the stories of cops driving vagrants to the county line then telling them to keep walking? You've never heard of hospital dumps, where they herd indigent patients onto buses and drive them into another part of town then kick them all off the bus? Such injustice is a way of life in our country, and if you don't believe it it's time you grew up a bit.

This isn't merely a misplaced non-justice thang- it's a genuine WE THE PEOPLE movement, and the momentum of it is spreading like wildfire. Of course it won't be enforceable, but who cares? The fact that a group of citizens are banding together to declare *bush persona non grata is the highest form of civil disobedience, and civil disobedience is an honored tradition in times such as we're going through.

WE THE PEOPLE. Damn, I like the sound of that!
