6. You are depending upon them to have a conscience.

Your idea will work on many, but those such as Walker in Wisconsin will have to be removed or forced out through direct action (non-violent but direct). He's having anyone in a group larger than 20 in the capitol arrested, having anyone singing arrested, and people have been breaking his made-up-on-the-spot rules for two years now. Some of these monsters care not one whit what the people do and as such must be ousted using something more than appeals, sit-ins, singing, and signs. They will continue doing what they do so long as they are literally allowed.

Occupy Fights Foreclosures showed up protesting at the home of a bankster and demanded he shut down his foreclosure mill. He replied "Which one?" and drove into his (gated) garage. He called the cops and they showed up with large weapons of some sort. The report and pics are here on DU somewhere.

Choose your tactic by your target. Some shall be swayed. Some shall give not a shit and continue business as usual until stopped. But as always, I support and applaud you for DOING SOMETHING, anything, and for not giving up, which is critical because destruction never stops, never gives up, until made to do so.
