The tribal protesters DID NOT want people like her around committing vandalism. They intended to keep the protests entirely peaceful. Some jackasses from way out of the area showed up and ruined that.
I talked to my mom about this a bit this weekend. The protests are very close to where she lives. Despite being a very conservative area, most people there were sympathetic to the tribal protests especially as they were completely peaceful...the outside people not so much.
How is spray-painting a bulldozer violent? And what exactly is wrong with solidarity?
It's not violence but it is vandalism of property.
