I guess I'm not up on the latest euphemisms for violence. It's not "diversity of tactics" any more, but "targeted property destruction"? Did I not get the memo?

If you don't think window smashing is violence, try walking down a riot corridor in LA or Washington DC and see the thriving communities there. Not. Lots of complicated rationalizations from the smashy smashy crowd. Not such a clear picture of what the world will be like if they get what they want, except probably even more fucked up than it already is, which is saying something.

So, anarchy and advocating violence are one and the same? I wouldn't have thought so, before reading this thread, but now I'm not so sure.

Can somebody clarify, and explain, if they are one and the same, the relationship between Occupations that have made commitments to non-violence, and participants who are operating without such a commitment?
