As I said many people of the earth are actually Pro-Murder raving
lunatics. So you add to the problem instead of fixing it. You simply
don't want to fix the problem. Great Attitude, Leigh.

As I don't have the time to lay it out for you. Others have analyzed this
very well in the past:

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot
drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence
multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending
spiral of destruction....The chain reaction of evil-hate begetting hate,
wars producing more wars-must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the
dark abyss of annihilation."
 --Martin Luther King, Jr.

 "If we all practice an eye for an eye, pretty soon the whole world will
be blind"
--Ghandi

"There is no torture committed in the american army, absolutely none, and
when I say none, I mean there is a certain amount."
--[a rework of an old Monty Python sketch]
 

And, YEAH. Non-Violence is cool! Violence are for cowards like the people
running USA (United States of Atrocities) at the moment! To choose non-
violence is about being brave. Any sissy can commit murder. To give and
sustain life that's true power.
