Conventional civil
disobedience usually engages localized agencies and domestic government. Redress
of grievances, constitutionally protected under law is a myth in practice. The
courts operate as protectors of state authority, while crushing the safeguards
of individual natural rights. Petition to elected officials for recourse
resembles begging for sustenance. Allegiance to country is confused with
deference to decadent dictates. Conscience and moral imperatives draw sincere
and aware citizens to resort to necessary measures of dissent. The question is
what kind of civil disobedience is appropriate and effective?
