they succeeded. It all depends on the goal and the end result.
There is a difference between what happens when one country or group of people set out with the goal of exerting dominance over the other group of people. The goal there was never to win hearts and minds. Therefore, they can exert dominance over the other group of people all day long. They just create more enemies and dominate those enemies. That is why war is bullshit. It doesn't really "win" anything. It just exerts dominance over a group of people and makes them hate you more.
Nonviolence is usually used with the goal of showing the unwarranted violence of the other side. In the face of their violence, you practice nonviolence to show everyone who the real bad guys are. The UC Davis students have succeeded in that goal.
Violence begets more violence. Nonviolence, when practiced like it was at UC Davis, wins.
