Why was white_wolf's thread locked?
There was no advocacy of "violent overthrow" of the government. It was a thread on a labor struggle that has involved civil disobedience. That's NOT advocacy of violent overthrow.

By that logic any threads about civil disobedience of the past from the labor struggles of the 30s to the civil rights and anti Vietnam war movements would have been locked.

1. It was locked for the reason stated by the moderator
The OP included the opinion that rich people should have their property damaged.

2. I must have missed that post..........
Even so, that's NOT advocating "violent overthrow". Thanks for the reply.

3. It was in the OP
and the rule isn't just about "violent overthrow" -- it also refers to "violent social change."
