You Are Responsible

If we teach our fellow American citizens to maverize, to excercise real self-control, to be long-willed, strong-minded supercitizens, they will choose never to commit violence, form mobs and to riot in the street based on exhortations from rabble-rousers inciting people to violence. Then it will not longer be easy and possible to blame Trump for rioters on 1/6/21 storming the Capitol (Trump did not incite them, and these anarhcists planned this before he talked to his supporter.) Ideas do have consequences but not such horrible consequences when public is strong, calm and refusing to riot or stampede unless they revolt consciously and cooly enmasse to overthrown a totalitarian government to restore the constitutional republic. Esch citizen, each thinker, is responsible for his behavior, not the source of his ideas. If he loots, burns and smashed property and attacks the police, that is on him, and he should be arrested and punished. Each citizen should protest peacefully and lobby government but should not turn violent.
