Not necessarily that, but the threat to not comply with whatever law they're passing.
@Beefki @rlier23 @All_bonesJones Civil disobedience has been shown to work. For example, there was a UK poll tax back in 1989 that ended because enough people refused to pay it. A lot of people did end up in jail, but they couldn't arrest everyone so they had to end it by 1990.
