:yesnod:

I think it's a good thing we don't have mass violence going on. I honestly think it's gravy that we've managed to get people so domesticated, for lack of a better word. Riots are no fun. Just look at the Middle-East - can you tell me anyone reasonable living there doesn't wish they had it like we do? I'm a big fan of every type of revolution that isn't armed.

But there is mass violence going on, just largely in other countries.

look at the drug war, police are intrinsically violent.

We all live under the gun every day; step out of line, and you get government violence on you.

not saying laws are bad though, just bad laws and authoritative governments.

The government should be living under the gun of the people, either literally or metaphorically.

I'm not comfortable living with the rapidly growing police state either.

I guess I can't really say what I think the right thing to do about it is. I just have a pretty clear idea of what the right thing to do isn't, and that's armed uprising against the government.

I believe really strongly in nonviolence. :shrug: Armed revolutions generally end in failure or worse, in setting off a cycle of violence and cultural decay that can last for centuries. This stuff goes really bad most of the time.
