1. We got comfortable in our rights. It's assumed to be there.

2. We go to college. We work. We have kids. Who has the time?

3. As far as others see, our rights have always have been there. No one has been teaching our history to us.

4. People are afraid of protesting. The media shows the blood, but not the peace.

5. Sometimes, there's just not enough money in the world to hire lawyers. Or hitmen. (Joking on the hitmen part.)

That's all the reasons I can think of.
