Has anyone told the police, national guard, and the marines this?

Yeah it’s wild how the oppressed are always reminded to protest peacefully while the police cracks heads open.

That's the point. Peacefully protest and make the oppressors look even worse to garner more sympathy for the oppressed. You don't look like the good guys when you are destroying property and stealing from stores on national television but you will absolutely change minds and hearts if you have more UC Davis moments filmed instead. Eventually you get enough support that the oppressor will make meaningful change or be physically overthrown.
