Remember reading this somewhere, something to this effect.
"The state will provoke and create conditions where you become violent, this is something they can handle, they have laws and machinery to put you in the place where they want you. It is non-violence that they don't know to handle. What can you do to a person or group of persons who sing songs, hold candle light vigils, silently march through neighborhoods. Nothing. That is where the state does not know what to do and how to handle such protests.
This is the only way to beat the state at its own game"
