| Rise Against – Re-Education (Through Labor) Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| the video is most-likely saying that things from that started in the industrial revolution are still evident today and implies that it's never too late to change something. or it could just be relating it to todays world. | |

| i think it's directly related to the industrial revolution and the harsh and cruel conditions of working, especially for children. also i think parts of it reflect ideas from Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels who both predicted that eventually the workers would over-throw the owners. i have no doubt that it relates to almost every event in the industrial revolution during the 1800's and about 1908ish. | |

1 - abortion isn't illegal. 2 - this is not a christian nation, this is not even close to one. the fact that you think it is is kinda sad, considering the constitution says religion has to be and always will be seperate from everything else we do legally. 3 - a fetus is living off of you. it's not alive in the sense that it can think, it doesn't react to it's enviroment. it's like being uncouncious. the mother feeds it in the womb, and it's oblivious. if you caused pain to it, it wouldn't react and flinch away like a human, it wouldn't get startled if you made a loud noise. it's simply there. it hasn't actually been alive before. so would you really think that that child would have a happy and good life if the mother doesn't want it, can't care for it, or if it has no home. chances are, when people get an abortion, theres a good reason for it. how do you think you would feel all you life if you knew your mother didn't want you. or maybe how would you feel if you were unwanted, and your mom couldn't care for you, and you ended up on the street. even adoption places, that's not a good life. majority of kids don't get adopted and are kicked out when they're 18. personally, i wouldn't really wanna be born if that was my life ahead of me. 4 - no one actually wants to stop supporting a fetus, it's not like something they look forward to. 5 - it's not a disgrace to stop supporting a baby that you cannot take care of, that has no possible future, or is possibly injuring your own body. 6 - if abortion is illegal, then people will simply continue to do it the way they did when it before it was legal. behind their house, in shacks, in the most unsanitary places. and the fetus will still loose support from the mother, the mother will most likely get severely sick, and damaging health issues just become a crazy problem. 7 - fetuses are not humans yet. they are undeveloped and cannot think. they have no human rights, and they are not feeling any pain. it's a totally painless act. 8 - it is not murder because you didn't 'kill' anything. you simply stopped supporting something that you didn't have to. the fetus is living off of you, just because you decide your not gonna nuritious it any long doesn't mean you murdered it. that's like saying, you murdered all those homeless people on the streets because you didn't support all of them and nuritious them. is it really murder if you don't have to do something. 9 - and again, i want to say that it's not like it's anything anybody wants to do. it is, undoubtedly, stopping a childs possible birth. and it's not a happy thing to do, i do not support abortion, i simply think it is a personally choice for all of the reasons i have above. |

i love the line "im not after fame or fortune. i'm after you" as well. the whole revolution thing is what i thought about too. like the guy doesn't care what happens to him, he just wants the gov't to change. and is he serving time for the military, for jail for like treason or something, or like time for the country? what do you think? |

also - i should add. the quote "This is the family that we crossed or never had This is a war that was lost the day that it began Because it’s the race we run, but it keeps us at the start" is basically saying that the family we lied to, or the one that wasn't really our family, is most likely iraq. we lost the war because we stayed at the start. meaning we maid abosultely no progress because "it's the race we run." -- just thought that was worth mentioning. |

i think this song is most likely pointing towards america for the last eight years. like saying that the bush administration has failed to do their job and felt that they were the "crown." they reject us, their own "flesh and blood" as in like their own coutnry kinda thing. and i see what shrapnail means when he says bush isn't spineless.. because he really isn't in the sense of crap he's done. but if you read the begining and end it says that we read the person like a polygraph and in the end own up to waht you've done. so he's spineless in the sense that he can't admit he was wrong. because everyone knew he was in the beginning, he coudn't say he was, and he won't say he was. as for the chorus. the castles that crumble are all of bushes lies, all of his men and workers, and all of the things that were surrounding him that made him look like he was doing the right thing, things that were essentially protecting him and allowing him to do whatever he wanted. it didn't work out exactly like that, but that's the idea. so as we watch him fall apart and look even stupider than ever, his 'crown' of power falls of because he thinks he should rule the world, and we take control. :D |
