Let me dumb this down a bit.
1. Rednecks lynching is not a revolution. It is an act of violence by a dominant group over a subordinate group. Nat Turner's rebellion was a revolution. It was the subordinate group striking back against the oppressive dominant group.

2. Genocide of a race is not a revolution. It is mass murder.

3. Committing a violent act does not automatically mean you are part of a revolution. Shooting your neighbor because you do not like him is not the start of a revolution.

4. A revolution is a means to an end (i.e. American Revolution to free the colonies from British oppression).

5. No revolution has been successful without the use of violence.

6. A revolution can fail miserably, but still be considered a revolution (i.e. the French Revolution. What started out as a revolution against the tyranny of the king turned into tyranny itself. It was indeed successful at first then the revolutionaries began committing the same acts which they initially were fighting against).

7. You do not know what the word revolution means or what it entails.
A revolution is a drastic change that usually occurs relatively quickly. This may be a change in the social or political institutions over a relatively short period of time, or a major change in its culture or economy. Some revolutions are led by the majority of the populace of a nation, others by a small band of revolutionaries. Compare rebellion.

8. How am I not really straightedge? How can you say that? My views are different than other straightedgers so that automatically makes me wrong?

9. My IQ is definitely above 20. If it were that low I would be living on the North Shore.

10. C is for cookie and now I am done with your sir. Good day!
