Do you know that the KKK would disperse & never come back when would-be victims armed themselves and shot at them? A big element in the civil rights movement was vets coming back from the world wars with combat experience and firing back on their oppressors. Those are stories that get lost in the pEaCefUL pRoTeST propaganda, but arming up and defending their communities was a huge piece of the black civil liberties movement.
Anyway, point is, turns out people who hide behind masks to commit terroristic acts are truly, deeply chickenshit. I'm willing to bet ICE would do the exact same thing as the KKK if fired back upon.
The only good Nazi is dead.
Not important cuz it's obvious what your saying but I feel like the second half of the statement is necessary. This kinda implies there was one good Nazi
Yes indeed
The 2 go hand in hand. The peaceful element provides cover and public cause support for the more militant elements. They also make it harder to concentrate forces to deal with them.
In turn, the militant add teeth to the peaceful element.
An intelligent government acts early, before the militant elements can come to bear. But for best results both (technically all 3, including political) are required.
Another good example are the Irish troubles. The IRA, while prominent, couldn't "win". The marches, and Sinn Fein did.
