A contrast of two demonstrations may bring further light to this principle.  Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. engaged in civil disobedience, being willing to be thrown into jail for his cause.  Ultimately, our country recognized the great unjustice and gave black people the right to vote.  The Occupy Wall Street movement is using the same tactic (except they are also unruly in their behavior), but their cause does not warrant civil disobedience.  They are like disobedient juveniles.

The rights element is an important part of the equation.

Why are people hungry for revolution. Is justice the same for different people or does each simply consider it just to get what they want?
