It is sad to see those people arrested and put away for acts of public defiance. They could have burnt down something and fought another day. :(

Some day, at some point, some act of defiance will trigger a revolt - maybe a revolution - but that time doesn't seem near. Covert attrition seems many times more effective currently.
