    I’m not criticising anyone, just pointing out your fallacious reasoning. For what it’s worth, I don’t think there is one single “right” approach, revolutionary movements are complex and multi-faceted, successful movements usually have a more moderate wing and a more militant wing, I want to see that more militant wing start to become bigger, stronger, and more visible. A peaceful protest movement by itself accomplishes very little - it is the state’s fear of the threat of worsening violence which actually brings about a change. For that fear to be realized, it needs to be visible. I don’t want widespread violence or mass shootings, I just want visibly armed protesters standing up against ICE and defending themselves if necessary.
