Actually, during WWII we saw what happened to people who were unable to fight back.

We saw what the Soviets did to Polish prisoners at Katyn Wood. We saw what the SS did to Jews, Confessing Christians, Gypsys, and homosexuals in the death camps.

Fighting back? Not the right thing to do, but the only thing to do. For the lack of will, and the simple skills such as adjusting artillery fire, cleaning a machine gun, and flying a bomber aircraft, millions were murdered.

The French POWs died in large numbers. Better to be a Maquis in the woods than a French officer in a POW camp.

Or how about:

Fighting Back.
It's not just a good idea.
It's the way to survive.

(I'm not correcting your post, just running with it. Trying to come up with something that will look good on a t-shirt.)
