Ways and Means 2

Violence is neither the way nor the means to an end
In a Democratic Republic.  However, non violent protest
Is a protected right under the constitution of the United 
States, and the cause need not be righteous to be deserving                  
of protected rights status.  Any cause, righteous or otherwise.                        must be protected not because it is popular but because it is                            
Simply a right under the constitution as per the Supreme Court            Interpretation.

A Republican was once heard indicating that he would never vote
For a particular presidential candidate who was a democrate, but
He would go to war to protect his right to run for president.  That
Is the true meaning of Americanism.
