It's also easier for the ruling class to simply ignore protesters, and it doesn't get your message seen by the general population. This is why the civil rights movement included marches that ground entire sections of cities to a halt and why MLK supported groups like the Black Panthers. Disruption and inconvenience are necessary to enacting change. Even with mass public support, nothing really happened for civil rights until MLK was killed and billions of dollars worth of property was torched. A week later, the civil rights laws were created, approved, and enacted.
