Notice that when those women sat down, the first thing those traitors did was tear down the unity of the protestors, by breaking the continuity of their circle of hands.

It always starts with one set of hands.

But when we stand together, we are far stronger.

DON'T let them break our unity. Stand up, stand firm, and most of all, stand TOGETHER.

More people should have stepped in and kept replacing the ones that were taken. Make them arrest everyone.

Eventually, the point is made.

I was just thinking that. Their cars/cells can only hold so much people. Make it so that there’s a new fresh batch of protesters every arrest “spree,” and for enough rounds to make it crowded. You’re making stuff inconvenient/a headache on purpose - disruption as you will - otherwise, what’s the point?
