If liberalish-leftists want to appease mainstream ideology, they need to remember that. I'm finding it somewhat delusional this idea that 'violence would alienate the public'. ??? It's the USA, for God's sake! I can't even keep up with how many wars it's currently engaged in, and smashing windows isn't on the same level of bombs, or even trigger-happy cops.<br /><br />Great post BTW - and spot on about that useful - useful - but pretty revolting (as in repulsive) figure Gandhi.

It's also about simply getting things done. What are we likely to accomplish using the different means available? And are we more likely to gain supporters if we use this means, that means, or that other one? In the end, we live in a real world with real consequences, not just an abstract one of philosophical concerns. I have no interest in purity.
