Question: when, if ever, is it proper to resist the government?
It is proper to proportionally oppose the government when it acts against it’s citizens. If the government is not using force, then the populace shouldn’t use force. The people should us whatever peaceful means it can to get the government back on track. If the government escalates the issue to one of force, then some of the populace is going to push back.
Our current government is either extremely misunderstood, or it has just about completely come unhinged.
