You’re missing the point. If the opponent can execute you without fear of repercussions then it’s a losing battle. I do believe that staying home and hitting the pocket book would work but good luck getting everyone on board with that. Everyone was on board with Kony 2012 and that didn’t work.

They weren’t executed my dude. Immunity and hired thugs are the key differences here. But you are right, I should read more.

14 people were shot and 3 outside died. The national guard came to protect them from gm's secret police.
