Thought of something just as I was finishing up the last post.. What sort of responses am I going to get? Possibly one about being a pacifist from somebody. That's always a PC stance. Now, I could launch into a theory of why pacifism is ethically wrong, but I think I'd rather just say this:
"It's easy to prove that pacifism doesn't work. There aren't that many of them around." - Me
In other words, don't take it for granted that just because you think killing is wrong, everyone else agrees. The only way complete non-violence works is in a Utopia. We should strive to be more non-violent and to reduce the amount of suffering in the world, but being squeamish about it doesn't help.
