    We cannot be silent in the face of Trump’s dictatorial move. Silence is acquiescence. We must be brave in resisting him. But we must not succumb to violence.

    What is needed is peaceful civil disobedience. Americans locking arms to protect those who need protection. Americans sitting in the way of armored cars. Americans singing and chanting in the face of the Americans whom Trump is drafting into his handmade civil war.

    Because peaceful civil disobedience definitely wont be met by force with 0 repercussions

      I honestly do not believe anything short of violent revolt will achieve any results. I am happy to be proven wrong as someone who isn’t really keen on that, but I just don’t see it.

      Well, you guys have guns. Time to use them what your founding fathers want you all to use them for, if it comes to it.
