re: #122 Killgore Trout

Let’s take the example of the young vet in Oakland who was seriously injured. He stood between police and protesters while protesters threw rocks and police lobbed tear gas. I’m sorry he was injured, especially seriously injured but he took a risk and probably know what was going on around him. If police targeted him intentionally they were wrong to do so. If he was hit by tear gas or a protesters rock accidentally then that’s part of the risk he was taking.
To passively take part in a violent protest still carries risk.

So is it your view that OWS protests are inherently violent or inevitably end as such?
