Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

The problem is, they're already doing it right now and we don't even have a rebellion to show for it.
If I'm going to get gunned down in the streets, I want to have earned it.
Peaceful protests work best when non-peaceful resistance exists.
MLK needed Malcom X and a handful of people willing to sacrifice their lives.
No social change in history occurred without bloodshed. Morally it is wrong to kill in all cases except self-defense. And people who feel their lives/rights are in danger will act in “self-defense”
Absolutely.
Northern Irish Civil Rights movement had the IRA. Women's Suffrage had the Suffregetes
All of these movements allowed the peaceful side to present the same terms:
'You deal with me or you deal with the other guy.'
