When it comes to serious occasions it unfortunately happens that very often the working men break their heads on the walls of the law. The desire to ignore the law is there, but it remains a desire. Possible action means to remain unorganized and to stand anything that the extortioner may see fit to do. He who submits to the present order of things, has not right to complain about capitalistic extortion, for order means sustaining that. And he who revolts against the institutions vouchsafed by the constitution and laws is a rebel and has no right to complain if he is met by soldiers.
Every class defends itself as well as it can.
A rebel who puts himself opposite the mouth of the cannons of his enemies with empty fists is a fool.
