You're right. The cops roll up and start shooting people.

Saying americans dont protest correctly isnt looking at the whole picture.

What the fuck is a correct protest? The only thing that matters is the results.

For a country that loves guns you sure don't fucking use em unless it involves a school or strip mall. A majority of your country is just complacent.

As an American, I truly believe we dont protest correctly. Even when theyre done violently they dont institute that much change. Were too afraid to step on the toes of our oppressors. French protests go fucking hard though. Tough to top their revolution where they paraded the corrupt and rich out into the streets to stand in line for a turn at the guillotine. If you ask me, we need to start getting a little more medieval.
