Over the past couple days I've heard a lot about how unacceptable violence is, and that's fine, but if violence is never an acceptable option we have to make sure we have non-violent ways of resolving conflicts. I think the unspoken part of this plea for non-violence is that it's better for conflicts to go unresolved than for them to be resolved through violence. I'm just not sure that's a viable solution. In fact, that's the opposite of a solution. I think these conflicts are going to resolve themselves one way or another, eventually.
