Would you rather go down swinging or just standing there?

I am referring to the apathy I see so much of concerning all things political, such as: bailouts, sovereignty, too much government control, etc. I am not an Obama fan and can not understand why so many people feel that their voices don't count anymore. I'd rather go down swinging personally. Any ideas why some want to just stand there?

Update:

I like all of these answers. Thanks.

    Swing away.

    It is hard to be heard when all the mass media is in the tank for Obama and his disciples.

    We are about to go down swinging because I won't let Obama crash us by spending money out of control, take our guns, tax us broke and run all the companies out of the country because of excess tax and then FORCE us into serving our country to fight all the wars he is planning.

    I, myself, will take down as many as I can, before I go. That goes for any invaders - foreign or ACCORN brownshirts.

    Some may just be waiting for that split second where the opponent drop his hands and some will just allow themselves to be owned. Those people, I feel sorry for.
