A Fobby Love Story
what stood out to me as the climax was:
`` Both are wrong, cause both personalities are
products of their own distinct environments``
I wish people would understand that
respect for another comes from
respecting their differences,
not trying to make them mirror you!

w00t! Brother you really hit the nail on that last paragraph,what stood out to me as the climax was:
`` Both are wrong, cause both personalities are
products of their own distinct environments``
I wish people would understand that
respect for another comes from
respecting their differences,
not trying to make them mirror you!

I nodded my head through the better half of your article.
You are correct in your call for the stop of violent action,
because it is impossible to build a sound, peaceful society that
emerges from a puddle of blood. That is just a contradiction in
itself.
However it does happen. People don`t want passive leaders,
because like it or not, someone is more willing to listen to you
when you have a gun pointed to their head than when
you are pleading to them to change their policies.
This is my opinion: the masses of people will follow
radical non violent direct action, or radical violent direct action,
but never something in between.
I believe both are equally effective, obviously though the first being
the most beneficial.
Examples of people who have brought dramatical change
through non violent direct action are Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr said ``Non-violent direct action seeks to create
such crisis, and establish such creative tension, that a community
that has constantly refused to negotiate is forced to
confront the issue``
I like the example of eutopia you give, but such eutopia will only
be established when the means of change are done through
non violent measures.
