    Genuine abhorrence of violence. Even though I think (know) it’s the only way we can overcome the lying, cheating, violent bastards on the other side, growing up in an abusive home makes the idea nauseating to me.

    I do believe we’ll reach a point where we have no choice, though I fear that will happen when it’s too late.

    Also, conditioning by mass media over a lifetime.

        I couldn’t agree more. That’s why people love Luigi so much and why there’s no sympathy for the Blackrock CEO who got killed at random. People are happy to see action; they just aren’t ready to act.
