Simple: We will not hesitate.
"First they ignore you
Then they laugh at you
Then they fight you
then you win"
-Mahatma Gandhi
Civil resistance is a type of non-violent action. It involves a range of widespread and sustained activities against a particular power, force, policy or regime – hence the term 'resistance'. The adjective 'civil' in this context denotes that which pertains to a citizen or society (often implying that a movement's goals are 'civil' in the sense of being widely shared in a society), and also that which is peaceful, polite, non-military or non-violent in character.

Love this! Being posi's all right, but it won't change anything. But on the other end of the spectrum, acting like some tough guy and forming gangs and physically hurting or even killing people isn't the way to go either since it makes the person using violence means as bad as the oppressor.
