I'm one of the few white conservatives in America who grew up in a majority-black urban city and attended an all-black middle school and an all-black high school. So, I grew up with an understanding and appreciation of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and his extraordinary ideas and strategies -- in particular, civil disobedience.
King was against any form of violence. So am I. But he understood that civil rights for black Americans would never be achieved without pushing the envelope. So, King inspired protests, strikes, boycotts, sit-ins and other forms of civil disobedience to get the attention of the government, businesses, media and white America.
It worked. I had a front-seat view of how effective his strategy was. King and his civil disobedience strategy changed this country and helped achieve civil rights and equality for black Americans.
Sadly, it's now time for conservatives, Christians, patriots and 80 million-plus Trump warriors to adopt the mentality, strategy and tactics of Dr. Martin Luther King and other black civil rights leaders. Because we are now the persecuted. It's our civil and human rights being violated.
In response to the communist takeover of America; to the destruction (at record pace) of everything that made our country great; and to the clear civil-rights and free-speech violations of the Constitution aimed at conservatives and patriots (and in particular, the unvaccinated), I wrote a brand-new bestselling book titled, "The Great Patriot Protest & Boycott Book" to teach conservatives how to use protest, boycotts, intimidation and civil disobedience -- just as liberals and civil rights activists have done for decades.
The loud minority has outplayed and steamrolled the silent majority for decades with this strategy of intimidation. Two can play at this game. We can't be silent anymore. We can't play nice anymore.
With the strategy in my book, conservatives can now play the same game as Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and other liberal activists. If you can't beat 'em, copy them. Use their tactics. Fight fire with fire.
And the main tactic we need right now is civil disobedience -- to prevent restaurants and retail stores from falling in line with clearly illegal and unconstitutional vaccine mandates and vaccine passports.
My nationally syndicated radio show, "Wayne Allyn Root: Raw & Unfiltered" on USA Radio Network, is based in Las Vegas. It dominates afternoon drive time. I've pledged, on my national radio show, to stop this plague of businesses announcing, "vaccinated only allowed," that is now the law in liberal big cities like New York, LA and San Francisco. We will not allow it in Vegas. We will not submit. We will resist.
I've publicly pledged that we will rain hell down on any restaurant or retail store that tries to block unvaccinated customers from entering. Just like liberals and civil rights activists, we will practice civil disobedience.
I will ask 10,000-plus conservatives to join me in front of the first restaurant or retail store in Vegas that tries to implement "vaccinated only." We will lock arms and block the entrance, so no one gets in or out -- just like MLK. We will sit at your counters, sit at your tables and refuse to leave. Just like MLK.
We will block each business day after day, until they either relent or close their doors. You will have to drag us away to prison. But each time you do, more patriots will replace us. As business dries up, and each retail store or restaurant goes out of business, the lesson will be learned ...
Conservatives, Christians, patriots and 80 million-plus Trump warriors count. Our voices will be heard. You cannot discriminate against us. You cannot violate our civil rights. You cannot treat us as second-class citizens -- or we will put you out of business.
This is how the battle for America's future will be won. Business by business, block by block, city by city. Just like courageous black Americans stood up to vicious police dogs and fire hoses, sat at the front of the bus and sat at segregated lunch counters. We will employ the same nonviolent civil disobedience. We will bring corporate America to its knees with boycotts. And we will bring retail stores and restaurants to their knees with well-placed physical protests, boycotts and sit-ins.
Two can play at this game. We will be heard. We will not allow you to destroy America or take away our civil rights. We will become the LOUD MAJORITY. You will listen, or we will shut your business down.
This is just the start. It's just Las Vegas. But my hope is that we will inspire conservative patriots across America to do the same thing in their cities. Because what happens in Vegas, spreads across America.
The time has come for bold and loud action. It's time for civil disobedience.
Great post.
The only issue here is that COVID psychosis is regional in the US. Here Florida, things are relatively back to normal. You still see people masked here and there, but there’s no talk of vaccination requirements. There are some doctors who are no longer seeing unvaccinated patients, but a funny thing is happening: they’re LOSING patients. Crazy how that works.
Hospital systems are on edge and don’t want to put a mandate in place yet, because Florida courts are still chewing on mandates attempted in places like Gainesville. Results are not promising for mandates.
This fight has to be undertaken regionally. I’m not sure what good I can do in places like Nevada from here in Florida, but I’ll support them however I can.
Can we talk about this subject on FR??
The civil rights movement of the ‘50s & ‘60s was met with governmental use of night sticks, German shepherds, water cannons and prison sentences. What would the current socialist government in the USA respond with today? What do socialist governments usually respond with?
I’m thinking mass graves would be involved.
The difference is the Left had/has the media and therefore the narrative on their side. We saw with BLM/Antifa vs Jan. 6th. In any places they also have the police and the DA’s office, again see above. We will not be portrayed as freedom seeking protestor we will be labeled domestic terrorist. See the letter from the National School Board Association asking for just a designation to be issued against parents trying to hold them accountable.
I agree with the author in theory. But we must always remember we won’t be celebrated for our resistance. We will be vilified and attacked both literally and figuratively.
Oh, and...F### Joe Biden.
Someone once said Gandhi was fortunate in who he protested against. The British were a civilized foe. If it had been Hitler or Stalin the outcome would have been much different.

For now...
Prisons and then furnaces... that is the usual progression
I’d say by definition that wasn’t an all-black middle school or high school...
This will not help the millions of Americans who are losing their jobs, their pensions, or worse— are caving in and getting the jab to preserve their ability to care for themselves and their families. This approach is not even necessary— for businesses with vaccine mandates, they are already seeing huge drops in customers... no one wants to give medical information to strangers, even the vaccinated, and the unvaccinated will not go there. The way to do this is to play hard-ball— The Republicans SHOULD have said they will not sign the Continuing Resolution (CR) to prevent the shutdown unless Uncle Joe rescinds the EO mandating vaccines. They should make this a condition of cooperation on any legislation or government action.
You have a better chance of talking about this on FR than you will on FB.
Zuckerberg is the “Big Brother” that Orwell warned us about!
I think you’re on to something. That’s a great idea!
The trouble with protesting the at the restaurants is that while they might protest the mandate today, the city can shut them down for good tomorrow. The cowards have forced good people to do bad things.
Absent violence, America is no more
They will not allow us to function till we are destroyed by the cudgel they call the law
That’s all well and good if the GOP was on our side. Do you see more than a handful of our representatives going to bat for us? Sadly, we’re on our own.
Civil disobedience does not work on leftist. They do not care about the civil rights of conservatives.
The only thing that will work against the filthy commie pukes ruling over us, is Irish Republican Army tactics. Nothing else will suffice.
Fight back any way you can, folks. I certainly do not want to live in a totalitarian state even though we are already there in many ways.
