Self-immolation is a terrible, yet somehow non-violent mode of protest. The recent attempt by an alleged FBI Information in front of the White House may be an isolated incident, but the form of protest is not new. Thoughts on self-immolation as a mode of protest are at blogcritics.org
Self-immolation is a nihilistic action at best, it achieves no results for the individual, apart from bringing to society's attention the alleged wrongs.
A post-modern post-colonial posting on the web. Expect eclectic, intelligent, fun thoughts and notable trails across the web and life.
