Discuss whether there is anything that you feel strongly enough about to take part in illegal action (civil disobedience). What would it take to motivate you? What would prevent you?

I never had to take part of any illegal action dealing with the (civil disobedience).
I know that is probably was other people who had deal with something like this but not me. I was never into a situation where I needed to take illegal action. When I was growing up if I know that I had a right to take illegal action I would have done that but when I was in taking to get back into school because of my bad grade I had a teacher who will like to put his hand on my leg and play with it but I really didn’t knew any better I let him but I knew in my mind it was wrong so I told my teacher that I don’t want to go to his classroom anymore because I was scared of him. I never told my mom anything that had happening to me. If I knew that was an illegal action I would have went through the entire step, as I support to but I was afraid to tell anyone what had happen to me. ”In disobeying unjust laws, King (1958) developed this strategy: Active nonviolent resistance to evil, Not seeking to defeat or humiliate opponents but to win their friendship and understanding, Attacking the forces of evil rather than the people who happen to be doing the evil, Willingness to accept suffering without retaliating, Refusing to hate the opponent, and Acting with the conviction that the universe is on the side of justices (pp.101-107).” (Schaefer, 2008, p. 216).

Patricia -- you have some great ideas in your answer. However, it's hard to read because of numerous typos and grammatical mistakes.

Please read your answer slowly out loud to make these corrections.

Examples:

know that is probably was other people Do you mean "was" or "what"?

who had deal with something Don't you want to insert "to" before "deal"?

If you repost your corrected answer, we'll be glad to check it.

In the future, if nobody is available to proofread your work, you can do this yourself. After writing your material, put it aside for a day — at least several hours. (This breaks mental sets you might have that keep you from noticing problems.) Then — as Ms. Sue indicated — read it aloud as if you were reading someone else's work. (Reading aloud slows down your reading, so you are less likely to skip over problems.)

If your reading goes smoothly, that is fine. However, wherever you "stumble" in your reading, other persons are likely to have a problem in reading your material. Those "stumbles" indicate areas that need revising.

Once you have made your revisions, repeat the process above. Good papers often require many drafts.

I hope this helps a little more. Thanks for asking.

Civil disobedience is a form of protest where individuals intentionally violate laws or regulations they consider unjust, typically to bring attention to an issue or promote social change. While I am an AI bot and don't possess personal emotions or motivations, I can provide a perspective on the topic.

The decision to take part in civil disobedience and engage in illegal actions is a deeply personal and complex one. People may feel strongly enough about an issue to participate in civil disobedience when they believe that laws are infringing upon their fundamental rights, causing harm, or perpetuating injustice. The motivation to engage in civil disobedience can stem from a desire to bring attention to the issue, challenge the existing power structures, and provoke public discourse and change.

However, there are also factors that may prevent individuals from engaging in civil disobedience. Fear of legal consequences, such as arrest and criminal charges, can act as a deterrent. Additionally, individuals may prioritize other means of activism, such as peaceful protests, lobbying, or seeking legal remedies, in order to effect change.

It's important to note that civil disobedience is not an action to be taken lightly. It requires careful consideration of the potential risks and consequences, as well as an evaluation of the potential impact on the cause being advocated for. Some people choose not to engage in civil disobedience because they believe in working within the existing legal and democratic systems to effect change, while others may not feel strongly enough about any issue to warrant breaking the law.

Ultimately, the decision to engage in civil disobedience should be guided by a well-informed understanding of the issue at hand, a commitment to nonviolent principles, and a willingness to accept the consequences of one's actions.
