Well, those all had protests as apart of them. Pretty much all labor protections we have were under the threat of violence to management by unions.

America was founded on a revolution, and the Boston tea party was a riot. Protests are a start, but not the end

People willing to actually fight is why we have freedom. Not people standing around with signs yelling.
