Can't disagree with this more.
Advocating for violence is wrong, and that's probably why you keep getting your comments removed.
In fact I'll go so far as to say that if we rely on violence every time to resolve issues then there'll be nothing left but cockroaches and dolphins looking around the scorched Earth wondering "What the fuck happened here?!"
Well to be fair, he didn't say which side would be committing the violence. One analysis of the civil rights movement is that is was successful because it provoked violence by the oppressors while cameras were present.
I speak towards violence of any kind, from either side. Self-defense notwithstanding.
If you're talking about overthrowing tyrants to become a free nation, then yeah /agree violence is most likely needed.
But the whole point of America and its political system is to resolve conflict in non-violet ways, so definately think your'e wrong there. Violence begets violence and destroys your land/homes.
How does any vote get passed in Congress today? Congress has votes and passes laws all the time without violence.
Our definition of 'violence' differs.
You need to justify that statement with real-country examples, because unless your definition of "violence" is different than it is for the rest of us, your comment is easily proven false.
Based on your definition...
FTFY.
