People rushing around without a head breaking things... I'm not dismissing that the anger is justified, I'm saying that the anger, if channeled with clarity, helps to both preserve the integrity of the movement and the respect of those outside it who's support may hinge on how they perceive the movement.


People don't have that clarity at the time. They may look back and say damn, what on earth was I thinking after the event, so ? Yes, non violence is preferable, but you have to understand why it arises sometime and seriously, you shouldn't be arguing to condemn it out of hand entirely.

Increasingly in these times non violent protest is becoming less and less sucessful, as a direct result of that people are becoming more isolated and more prone to violence as non-violent outlets for protest are becoming more ignored.
