"With that said, unless your, or someone else's life is in danger, never resort to violence. To the vast number of citizens, the easiest way to move people away from your cause is to wind up in a violent situation. Your power to remain calm during times of duress will draw people to your cause. There is no shame in turning your back on some screaming moron and walking away. The reality is, witnesses will respect you."
