No, I don't. I would like to believe that peaceful protest works but I don't think it does in this day and age. I mean Ghandi, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King have all achieved what they wanted peacefully but in London you hear about a 'peaceful' protest and you can be damn sure that the protests will errupt in violence (eg- Student fees march, the march against the cuts). I do believe that it's not the actual protesters who smash everything up but people who are just looking for trouble and use the protests to cloak their illegal activities and this makes me lose faith in 'peaceful protest'. Smashing up Fortnum&Mason, really?
