You summed up my thoughts except the fact is im not going to go out and kill folks even if the revolution has started but I might lay down my life.
Revolutions often lead to or end up as civil wars. You may not have a choice. I'm not suggesting every revolutionary needs to carry 8 lbs of lead, there are plenty of ways to contribute and no one should be forced to commit acts of violence. But do learn how to shoot a gun. Violence is often something that is imposed upon us.
oh im completely not learning how to shoot a gun. Im going to my grave without intentionally trying to kill someone.
Even if they are very obviously attempting to kill you and the one's you love? /gen
You can try and stop someone from killing someone without killing them.
