What is uncivil protests?
Here's why they are dumb...
Hym "Right but the problem with your uncivil protests is that the government doesn't give a shit if Wal-Mart's windows get busted because 'ThEy HaVe InSuRaNcE!' The people you collectively have a problem with aren't the ones paying the price for your discontent because you aren't even GOING TO WHERE THEY ARE. And now that you've framed protesting AT THE ACTUAL PLACE WHERE THE PEOPLE YOU ARE PROTESTING ARE as an 'Insurrection' and 'violence bad' the people responsible for the collective discontent are never even affected by the thing you're doing to other people who are not them. It's like a peasant revolt where the peasants burn down everything EXCEPT FOR THE KING'S CASTLE and then just go home. It doesn't work. What are you going to do? Replace the guy who says he believes the things you believe with another guy who claims to believe what you believe? 2 or 4 years from now? That's already been happening. 'If OnLy It WaSn'T fOr ThE oThEr GuY!' you'll perpetually cry but YOU'RE already were you are. You're an object in motion. So, it doesn't really matter is it doesn't work. But you know what does work (and I'm not advocating for this) 100% of the time? The threat of hammer clowns. In theory. They are the only thing keeping us safe. Hammer clowns and the threat of hammer clowns. Just look at Afghanistan. Their hammer clowns won and now they need new hammer clowns or be ruled by taliban indefinitely. If only they were amenable to reason.... Hmm... Tragic... Oh well..."
