And doing nothing when someone is violently assailing you seems like it would carry consequences of its own. I’m not advocating that we meet violence with murderous retribution, but when diplomacy fails and someone intends to cause you harm no matter what you do, defending yourself is the only reasonable course of action.
“whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
-Preamble to the Declaration of Independence (of the United States of America)
Yeah? Why not name out the times a significant change happened without violence, and we’ll compare it to the number of times it took violence. Special hint: One of these is MUCH larger than the other. Hell, like 100 people were killed over a few days just to get the US down to a 40 hour work week.
Yes, it is. They are willing to use violence against us all, we should be willing to do the same. The only downside is that when they brutalize and jail us, they get to go home. We don’t stand a fucking chance.
Violence begets more violence. This isn’t the way.
Empty platitudes. Pacifism doesn’t work on Nazis. Mandalorianism though…
So they’ll just get to kill us without consequence. Fucking awesome
And us killing them comes without consequences?
clearly we need to wait for the death camps

Just passively get into the van please.

Says person whose rights have all been secured via violence.
If you view ICE as zombies that can think, it gets a lot easier.
They think?? You might be giving them to much credit

I most heartily agree it’s simply senseless and cruel to brutalize other humans, cut their throats wide better to put them down like rabid dogs.
