Yea, Anthony, it "SHOULD" not. You are correct.

What I am about to say is not directed at Will Shetterly. I agree with Will. I wanted to respond to this quote that Will pulled from Anthony Lamesa's article.

Correct. A democracy should not need violence to influence change. But as history has shown, some "leaders' don't adjust their actions when we simply TELL them our concerns.

Correct. In a democracy, when the people say there is an issue, it should be addressed at THAT time. That would be great and ideal.

Perhaps as we move forward, "leaders" will adopt the proper behavior when people express what we need.

Until then, the violence is likely to occur. Not that it should but that it becomes increasingly likely when the requests and demands of the people are ignored.

Side Note: I keep putting "leaders" in quotes because I don't really consider people "leaders" just because they have larger incomes than the average person. They are simply and only a person with the power of capital to fund their choices. They are not leading. They are just influencing by how they use their money.
