  Far too many people have short memories when it comes to the shit their side did.

White supremacists and police have never been asked to commit to nonviolence. That’s only ever been asked of victims.

My mom peacefully protested our country~s dictatorship when she was in uni.

The protesters weren’t the ones who brought dogs to maul people, it was the police who did it. 

As my mom once put it, “If possible, it’s preferable to protest peacefully. But there comes a point where peaceful protesting isn’t enough. And if you need to get violent then so be it. If you tried to protest peacefully and no one would listen, sometimes you have to make them listen.”
