While I have a strong bias against the state engaging in violence against it's own people, I have no such bias against people violently pushing back on the state. Or, you know...how we became a state to begin with.
Does that clear anything up? I don't care whether or not we're angels...and I'd honestly rather stand against jack booted thugs with straight up killers. We'd get more done. This business of politely asking a violent state to stop killing you doesn't seem to work. You might have noticed that the man in the video tried that.
I said something along this line earlier. As long as the protesters are attacking organs of the state - burning police cars, fire bombing police stations, throwing rocks at cops - I’m completely comfortable with it. These people are NOT engaging in criminal behaviour, regardless of what the law says.
