Peaceful protests work best when non-peaceful resistance exists.
MLK needed Malcom X and a handful of people willing to sacrifice their lives.
No social change in history occurred without bloodshed. Morally it is wrong to kill in all cases except self-defense. And people who feel their lives/rights are in danger will act in “self-defense”
RFK wants to send me to a wellness farm. Also, the black dude down the street, just because.
I think the choice to conflict has been made for me, and I should get ready to fight. That means training, and joining up with whoever else who wants to die on their home’s soil. I am not going to El Salvador.

Absolutely.
Northern Irish Civil Rights movement had the IRA. Women’s Suffrage had the Suffregetes
All of these movements allowed the peaceful side to present the same terms:
‘You deal with me or you deal with the other guy.’
