Civil disobediance poll

[China Cat Sunflower]

I don't get this poll. Are you asking to what extent government should sanction civil disobedience? Like, should you have to get a permit to break the law kinda thing? I'll have the beer and anarchy permit and three bundles of firewood Mister Ranger, sir.

Civil disobedience is like some antique firearm in a display case. The last time it was used in my country was the WTO protests in Seattle. That was a while ago.

Its more often than you think. The media and the gov't downplay the numbers in attendance everytime and find the really radical stuff to point out. Tis why I'm more in favor of peaceful demonstration. Start getting in conflicts with the police and you not only get gassed, tazed, beat, cuffed and jailed but also on the news as a loony.

Tibetans know how to do civil disobedience. They're media savvy. People have to die for the eyes of the world to notice. Non violence only works when people die in front of the wire lenses. Bodies on wheels kinda thing. Not to get all philosophical and sh**.
