She was not stupid, nor useless or played into their hand. Be inspired and take example. Being arrested for a little bit is not that big of a price to pay for resisting tyranny.
More importantly, without blindly believing it will automatically come true, at least put the scenario where you win into your heads. Going to prison for what’s right can actually be liberating, if you think about it. And people can be taken out of prison too, together with all those that were imprisoned for getting or giving an abortion, those that immigrated “illegally” but spent decades contributing to the US’s society and economy, those that only had a bunch of weed on them, etc. Maybe even the whole “for-profit prison” concept may finally come to an end. Imagine that!
