Would you commit or back violence as a means to achieve a political end?

If you would so so then where would the threshold for such action lay?

Yes, however it's really not a yes or no question. Obviously the threshold for such action for be in different places for different situations.

By the way, your questions were incredibly poorly written. Please put a bit more effort into your attempts at trolling. Thumbs Down

Bear in mind we only have a democracy because our ancestors committed acts of violence to retain a parliament. You can argue that it was worth it in the long run, therefore acts of violence that are 'worth it in the long run' should be acceptable as means to a Political end.

It all depends on whether the end result is what one intended at the time of the act of violence...

No, violence is never acceptable. Dialogue and appeasement always work.

Yes.

On the other I'll post No to keep a balanced argument.


You still trying to find your balance?

Still walking on all fours then.
