Just a few thoughts about resistance

7. I understand

Especially some of us older folks who have been protesting the bullshit for years have a tendency to just want to kick someone's ass. And while it would be well deserved, it is not a tactic that will work.
We would be clobbered. It is not now the time for that kind of action. These young occupiers are pretty clever. Trust them. It must remain peaceful.
It is sometimes hard when you see such bullshit abounding in this country. Don't try to change the peaceful goals of this occupation. It will just turn it all into shit.

Remain calm. I know it is sometimes hard for me too. Just do it. Don't give them a legal excuse to squash us.

I'm pretty sure the newest ruling says that you do NOT have the right to resist even if the officer is wrong. You must accept arrest, then fight it out legally. Resistance is futile.
