No.
But then again, I wouldn't just put anyone in the same boat since people do the same thing for different reasons :shrug:
And that's labeling, something which I try to avoid as much as I can :sherlock:

Well I was just thinking how the norm looks down upon terrorists, gangsters, and pirates when the norm might have created those groups themselves.

Should I look at them as one or is it different strokes for different folks?

Since everybody has different backgrounds, how can we look at them as one? :shrug:

oh jeez, well as far as their causes go.  I know there's the greedy ones but I guess that could be taken out of context and be applied to anyone...


Here's a story I'll go from which is from the book of Chuang Tzu. HALLELUJAH.. hehe no but seriously... ok

so pretty much the story goes on about benevolence.  Robin hood would steal from the rich and give to the poor, while Kings take over another's land in the name of whatever cause "for the greatness of "establishment's name"" and glory of god kind of deal...

So both these realms claim benevolence with their acts, but one is highly reveered, while the other is hanged.

This when I talk about Robin hood, I also mean the pirates, terrorists, and gangsters.  Rest aside violence, lets just look at it purely philosophical and no emotions here.  Is there a difference?  That's what I wonder about. 

elaborations appreciated :smile: :hug:

I would feel motivated to say from my papal infallibility that terrorists are generally the only group that ever act out of a sense of altruism.

I think there are very few cases where killing is a valid means to any end. It seems like greed is what motivates most of these groups. If it were a true desire to help others, I think there may be more benevolent means.
