text: “Even voting for the right is doing nothing for it. It is only expressing to men feebly your desire that it should prevail. A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance, nor wish it to prevail through the power of the majority. There is but little virtue in the action of masses of men.” 
  ― Henry David Thoreau, Civil Disobedience and Other Essays
  
  Civil disobedience is part of our democracy and progress, yet you think that it is wrong and complain when it is not your "side".  I am sure you were probably cheering the tea bag party when it was engaging in civil disobedience.  Hypocrisy much?
