Gioradano, you don't seem to get my point. I said that the real change comes from the street. Opressed people should get on the street and protest massively. And like Sidster said, breaking and burning buildings and public property is considered colleteral damage in such movements. And some dis-honest groups do tend to profit from it. There's no doubt. This is not nepalese mentality. May be you see this kind of things happenning more often in Nepal, but that's because in Nepal you have tons and tons of groups facing social injustice. But the underlying fact is, you do not get what you want by staying in the house, trying to rally lawers, writing letters to your congressmen etc etc. Let me say it again, when the entire system is and has been against you, including the justic system, what other means do you have than resorting to armed movement to attract attention of officials that are in charge of bringing change? Do you think in Nepal we got our democracy in 1990s by staying at home sun bathing and eating peanuts on our terrace?
