This is kind of interesting.
Some high school students in Boulder are camping out in their school's library until they get a meeting with certain elected officials, including the governor and representative Marilyn Musgrave. If you're not familiar with Marilyn Musgrave, she authored the proposed amendment to the U.S. Constitution banning gay marriage. She was just re-elected to the House of Representatives, although not by as wide a margin as in the last election.
Of course this protest may have no effect on anything, but I wonder if more people are going to start getting involved in local politics and/or in trying to hold politicians accountable for what they're doing. Hopefully people who are frustrated with how things are going will start doing something about it rather than just complaining. What do you think?
