It's only really happened the once so far. I think they're overreacting at this point...

To some extent, yes. However, history has a tendency to repeat itself, and generally we see that there’s only so much inequality that people can take for so long. Deny them a peaceful option for change, and violence becomes inevitable.

To be clear, this is not a threat. It’s an observation, and history’s promise.
