A good idea! Remember the French Revolution? It resulted in many years of the dictator Napoleon.

Remember Egypt? It was basically a peaceful protest. Whether it will hold depends upon how much you can trust a military body to be involved in government.

That's why the so-called Commander-in-Chief in the U.S. is a civilian.

There is the question of Cuba, though. Some will argue guns did it.

I'm not sure that holds.

I'm a proponent of peaceful activism.

"Peaceful activism" must be followed by the gun in order to make the objectives secure.
