I sometimes think that violence is seen as the easier answer. It is short term thinking, a big risk for an immediate possible reward versus a brutally long marathon of effort needed to enact real change non-violently. Statistically the long slog is the correct choice though.
You cannot keep fighting if you are dead from a violent act, but if you get up and apply pressure everyday it will add up. Be a warrior of great and enduring patience. Get up when you fail and try again. Learn and live a long time. And other words of motivation that are written on white ladies kitchen walls.


I don’t really like that the UCP has used every government resource available to them to produce propaganda about the referendum, bringing forth a referendum question after the petition for the question was rejected by the legal system, and further gaming the question with confounding language and a three option answer with two answers ostensibly on the same side of the issue (opposing “leave”) to split opposition.
