That's just plain silly, richard. I can think of a number of instances in
which demonstrations, peaceful and otherwise, got unjust laws or policies
changed. I'm aure you can, too. Conflict can speed along the process.



Not silly at all. I can think of demonstrations, peaceful and otherwise
that have resulted
in people killed or in the hospital. A high school prom isn't worth the
risk.
