No one felt like critiquing nonviolence

After someone accused me of cherry-picking examples of successful nonviolence, I issued a challenge to anyone who felt similarly to send me examples of times that nonviolence/nonviolent resistance had failed, which it has at times. I gave people a week to send in their examples and my hope was that we could have some interesting discussions around when nonviolent resistance should or should not be tried.

But no one took me up on my offer.
