Skashion said:Have to say I think it's good to remind our politicians once in a while that sometimes people can get so pissed off they want to smash shit up. Politicians don't really care about peaceful protest but they do give a shit about civil disobedience, civil disorder and/or revolution. I think it's the only thing that sets a line that warns the government not to cross it. If people are just moaning or walking through the streets calmly, it sends the message that you're ok and could probably push a bit further.
Is it a good thing though?? What would happen if they actually got a result and the politicians took notice?
Not a great message to be sending out. Start a riot, stick a few police officers in hospital and break into a building and you get what you want. Its abit like kids throwing their toys out the pram, if you give them what they want they turn into spoilt brats and want more.
