violence has never really solved anything except removing the feeling of being threaten. If someone else is really out to kill you or someone else and you have to take them out---yea you removed that threat. But, at what cost? You will always wonder if there was something different that could have been done.
The victors are the ones that have learned to never let things get to the point in which violence is required. To not do so is failure.
Use the best weapon a man has ever had---your brain.

The only way that works is if everybody - without exception - agrees with it.
As soon as you have an individual that does not, you need another individual to counter that "dissenter".
If you have only sheep, you need no herder. But, should there be a wolf, there is little to be gained by trying to convince him that being a sheep is a better way of life. You will need the herder to protect the sheep.

While I totally agree with this philosophy, the reality is, unfortunately, the converse.

If you have only sheep, you need no herder. But, should there be a wolf, there is little to be gained by trying to convince him that being a sheep is a better way of life. You will need the herder to protect the sheep.

"In any escolated situation there is a "point of no return" where it is clear that someone is going to lose their cool and physicaly hurt or kill some one. As long as you were convinced that there is, in the moment, no alternative but to confront the attacker to save the suffering of others then it is moraly justified.
Also to be able to fight/defend with feelings of calm/understanding/empathy for your oponent is essential and will lead to the best possible and most just outcome for him/her(the attacker). Only in the last moments when it is clear there is no alternitive would a budhist sentence his attacker to death and be true to his beliefs in doing so."
Now, I have to admit I was not able to convince my professure entierly of this line of logic but he did conceed that I had some good points...
That said the above is basicly what I live by. Intervene when nessecary only up to the point it is needed. And if "justice" needs to be served then I do it with sincere remorse that an alternative could not be found....
Too bad this thread is getting closed

On another note stick, i wouldn't take too much of this personaly. It looks like to me that everyone has gotten caughtup in the mental exercise of trying to piece this mystery together. Idle hands/minds are the devils work shop... 8)

don't understand why you love to dwell on it.
unless you think i'm a 4yr old little girl with fake driver's license who also has 14 other screen names.

guys, all i care about is my car, and none of this is helping. i decided to leave the thread open just for the records.
thanks to all friends, and for those who doubt me, just wait for photos and updates. if you just love speculating, please start your own thread in the lounge area or something.
thanks.

i'm sure mysql'd still reply to this here and yap away like a chiwawa, but unless you want to pm me, i will not reply to your posts. i'm realizing quite quickly i can not communicate with 10 different minds in this format.
think what you want, say what you want, if you want to talk to me, pm me for my phone # or just pm me. i much prefer you just wait until my photos and updates.
thanks to all friends who backed me up, and for those who doubt me, just wait for photos and updates. if you just love speculating, please start your own thread in the lounge area or something.
thanks all.
