Like Sean said It does not matter what they do the idea is not going to die. Wesen will come out of the shadows. We have seen more wesen exposure in this season then in the entire run of the show. There is no way season 6 could be anything other then wesen out of the shadows. What people also fail to realise that there is no winner in this fight. Having the most powerful asset does not give you and advantage. Like Lucian said you may win the battle but you won't win the war. This is not the kind of conflict that can be resolved in a head to head battle with winner take all.
If this were a freedom fighter type of conflict I would be on the side of the wesen. Who the heck willingly wears the yoke of oppression. The peaceful demand for civil rights could be made by the wesen population, and freely given by those outside the protesting group in recognition that it's the right thing to do - by using a country's legal system to get it done. Wesen have been operating within the societal system as long as have the kehrsiete and it would be an arduous task, but it would be the right way to go about change. But the engine driving this uprising, imo, is retribution. Not a righteous demand for recognition of the constitutional guarantees accruing to all citizens born in their various countries, but the absolute resolve to take what they want by force. That's a textbook definition of war.

Many viewers see the BC position as being apocalyptic for humans. BC has never said they wanted to eliminate humans. BC said persecute us we eliminate you. People have posted concerns about humans reactions of knowing about wesen. Problem shoot a wesen out of fear that is murder. You try a fight a wesen they will kill you. No where has it been stated the avocation of wesen going after humans. The concern is humans going after wesen. That is where the blood shed would come from. Think logically why would wesen need to eliminate humans. Wesen are stronger, faster, and better at their given talent then any human. Without having to hide they will dominate.
Because one of the stated mission aims of BC is to dominate humans, to take away their freedom of self-governance. From where I stand, there already is a war underway - the things BC has done to date are the first volleys by which they prepare the battlefield for troop combat. I never saw this threat as an attempt to rid the world of humans, only to subjugate them.
With their movement in full swing, I'm thinking a bloody clash is inevitable. The time to negotiate the terms of a cease fire will come when one side surrenders.
