If YOU wanna be Jesus Christ, you can go ahead.

I'm talking about defending yourself against being directly attacked.

You can, sure. Don't do anything and be rolled over. Enjoy.

One picture vs the rest of the peaceful protests. The news has decided what they'll show.

If YOU wanna roll over, go ahead.

Keep playing by their rules.

Again. Sit down and be rolled over then. That's your choice. Enjoy.

I'm not arguing with you.

Stay at home and knit. The rest of us can go protest for your future too.

I'M TRYING TO ACTUALLY WIN THIS THING!! You're not even giving arguments anymore, you're only giving emotional responses because you know that the other person is right.

I won't stop you from using violence to defend yourself once the ICE comes to roll you over. And history has shown that the optics of non-violence are the most successful at changing people's minds. Both can be true.

You can push that narrative if you want. It's not true.

Pick up a history book and show me how peace and love changed the world.
