If I remember my history correctly, they did decide to boycott the buses.

The Montgomery Bus Boycott is famous. Dr Martin Luther King arrived and told everyone the only way to fight was to boycott the buses. People were arrested for arranging car pools, waiting for rides, etc.

It’s famous. It was non-violent on the part of the boycotters.

It’s probably an excellent idea.

Too bad we don’t have a conservative with the stature of Dr King to get it kicked off.

Could work. Sarah Palin’s “Letter from the Birmingham Jail” would be a good read.
