Passive resistance as a political tool

Those of us on the so-called "right" need to smarten up a bit about tactics.  You don't have to be a tough guy to win these battles.  The civil rights movement of the sixties was successful without violence.  Martin Luther King followed the example of Mahatma Gandhi, and managed to keep the high moral ground in the face of injustice.  Consequently, they were able to win some victories for their movement.  Those of us on the so-called "right" should adopt some of these tactics.

Let's take an example cited by Ann Barnhardt in a recent post of hers.  She pointed out that nobody did anything about the fact that the school board had a man arrested for doing nothing but expressing his civil rights.  He objected to pornography being pushed on his daughter without his knowledge and consent.  The school should not be doing this kind of thing, and the appropriate response should not be an arrest of the man for expression of his objection to how his daughter was being "educated".

Abuse of power is to be expected.  But the reaction needs to be such that the moral high ground is maintained.  The man needs some support obviously, so several people could have gone with him to this meeting.  When the Gestapo tactics started, they could have supported each other by continuing their objections without fighting.  When they are arrested, they can just refuse to walk out with the officer as this man did.  They could force the officer to carry him out bodily.  This may require two or more officers for each protester.  This could overwhelm a police force in no time if there are many protesters.

However, if the man goes bonkers and starts fighting, he could be branded as a "domestic terrorist", and thus lose the moral high ground.

The so-called "right" needs to organize these activities so as to gain maximum publicity that will harm the left's intention to pollute the minds of the young with their propaganda.  If they try to get rough, make this backfire on them.  It worked for the civil rights movement in the sixties.  It can work again.
