Poll: Violence is never the answer

[Kyoufuu]

Violence is never the answer. Violence is the question. The answer is always 'yes'.

Seriously, though, it depends on the context. If some guy was mowing down a shopping centre with a minigun, and I had a handgun, I would definitely try to take him out.

 

[Acting like a FOOL]

Hell, even if violence truly was never the answer it would still be a pretty damn popular reply.

 

[Death on Trapezoids]

Violence is always an option.

How high up on the list it resides is up to you.

 

[SUPA FRANKY]

Violence is the answer to all problems, as its hard for there to be a problem when its fucking ripped in half. It may not solve it well, but its guaranteed to solve everything.

 

[TeeBs]

In a perfect world there would be no violence.

But I got news for you mamby pamby this ain't know perfect world.

Kinda depends on the situation.
Sometimes violence will solve the current predicament. And sometimes it'll cause even bigger problems in doing so. With "bigger problems" basically meaning "how am I going to get rid of this body?"

 

[blazearmoru]

Violence leads to violence, unless if everyone who wishes to retaliate or bring vengeance are dead. If there is ever a reason to use something such as violence, make sure you do it right. Everything done has effects, and sometimes the effect desired can only be attained by violence, but before that, be sure to consider other options first. What is the cause, is there another method to obtain desired effects/outcomes? If not, make sure you plan shit right. :T

Some say a perfect world is a world without violence and make their judgement from that belief. A perfect world without violence, isn't what you would think it is. Animals wouldn't be able to eat and will die, then plants will die. Etc etc. A perfect world is a lifeless one.

Simple, you put it in a bag and throw it in the garbage. and when someone sees you, you simply apply violence on them.

It depends on the situation. I'm not going to be able to talk my way out of a mugging, I'll break that buggers goddamn arm (Assuming he/she is using just a knife). But I try to avoid it as much as possible.

Violence is always the best answer, but usually not the only one.

 

[CheesusCrust]

Violence can be the answer to anything but is not always the answer.

 

[TheDarkestDerp]

Violence isn't the answer. Violence is the question. "Yes please" is the answer.

Its the Solution

 

[Elburzito]

Look at Egypt right now. The way things are going they might get a democracy.

They probably won't. They'll probably end up like Afghanistan where Islamic extremists will take over, followed by America intervening in a few decades.

OT: I would only use violence if there is no other alternative. Just so you know, I've only ever used violence twice before to make my point.

 

[Zanakanishi]

Violence is a natural instinct, if something makes us feel at threat..for example "flight or fight" we either run (but, due to peer pressure and the way people are bought up, we feel like "cowards" if we run) or fight, during either the running or fighting, we would, for a short time be faster/stronger+more enduring, this proves.. that it is build into us to use violence at times, most animals use violence in some way.. and we are all animals.

 

[JordanXlord]

Most things are solved by violence, we're humans.

It's what we do best.

Your an idiot, most things are not solved by violence.

your inhuman


Violence is a part of all humans...so your the Idiot

And Most things can be solved by Violence

How did we got rid of the Hippies?...thats right with Violence

 

[Axzarious]

I can say that violence is ALWAYS an answer, but its not always THE BEST CHOICE. I will say that you can solve anything with some form of violence. But I belive it should be used as the absolute last resort. We are humans, not animals.

 

[JordanXlord]

Violence is always the answer!!!
How do you think they solve who becomes president? A fight to the death.

So THAT'S how Bush won!

so your saying...i could be President?

Unless they say "No Fire Magic or Anyother Arcane Arts allowed"

 

[AgDr_ODST]

violence is a means to an end....and it can be a matter of react back violently or be a victim of someones violent actions but this is not always the case of course
