Borrowed from a friend: Yes, the President has grossly abused his power and persistently acted irresponsibly toward those whom he is to be leading. He should be removed. That message will not be effectively conveyed by us acting irresponsibly toward the employees, students and children we are to be leading on Friday. The first weapon against irresponsible leadership in government is responsible leadership in our homes and businesses. Further, #Stayawayfriday will only do more harm to the economy by the lack of production/trade. It is like protesting a clogged bathtub by breaking off the shower head. You have the right to do so, but it lacks effectiveness. And you are creating an environment where citizens learn that they can get their way by staying away from their responsibilities. We need more people to be responsible and steadfast. We need more hard workers and law-abiding citizens. We already have enough criminals. Don't unwittingly become one of them by thinking you are doing good. Be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
