    | This seems to be a perennial problem with rights activists. 
 It's always too little, too late.
 
 If it takes hyperbole to get them off their butts at the last minute, then they aren't fulfilling their civic obligation to pay attention and move forcefully to protect their own rights, and defeating the momentum of the rights-deniers becomes downright impossible.

                      | You are bound to meet misfortune if you are unarmed because, among other reasons, people despise you....There is simply no comparison between a man who is armed and one who is not. It is unreasonable to expect that an armed man should obey one who is unarmed, or that an unarmed man should remain safe and secure when his servants are armed. In the latter case, there will be suspicion on the one hand and contempt on the other, making cooperation impossible.  — Niccolo Machiavelli in "The Prince." |  |  |
