Kindly reread Letter from a Birmingham Jail.

BTW, the tea-partiers knew the consequences of getting caught, which is why they expended so much energy on NOT getting caught. They would not have thrown a hissy-fit about it not being "fair" that they were getting punished. In short, they had a LOT more scrotal fortitude than folks like Roy Moore.
