Voting is not the answer, and as much as i hate to say this violence isn't the answer either... yet. Wait. first, we have to just not comply. It is when they try to use violence to compel you to comply when you bring violence. We didn't just shoot the british, first we just ignored them. But when they tried to enforce their illegal acts with violence, that is when we got violent. be patient pedes. Soon the boom boom's begin, but not yet.

That isn't entirely accurate. Patriots were known to tar and feather loyalists and to destroy their property, and this was well before war began between the colonists and the crown. Even before the Boston Massacre, the Sons of Liberty were destroying government property and threatening officials with violence.
