If you're not willing to fight this crap then you have no right to complain down the road when they back you into a corner you don't want to be in.

If you're not part of the solution, then you're likely part of the problem.

I get that and agree, but that's what they're banking on to continue taking away your rights bit-by-bit. Where's the line you're not willing to let them cross? You'd better start defending it well before they get to that point, or their momentum will just run you over by the time they finally get there.
