when is their no excuse for violence?




Posted by Lord of Spam

Never.

There is rarely a good excuse though.




Posted by bustedxup

It may not be a good excuse but , theres always an excuse.

That's what he just said.

And I agree with him.

Or there's violence for fun (VGs for example)
Or there is violence for criminal causes.

Violence is nature. Violence is instinct. There is always some excuse for violence. Redundancy check.

You're an idiot.

Always a reason for violence, because it solves nearly every problem (except being a pacifist).

Our nation lives for violence.

Owned.

Violence is human instinct as said before.



Posted by Lord of Spam

Violence is not an instinct. Violence is something that is used to fulfill other instincts, but it is not an instinct in and of itself.

there

This is a pretty weird question, considering you can make an excuse for virtually anything. not always a good one, but an excuse nevertheless. It's totally subjective whether or not the excuse is valid.

I personally don't find violence acceptable unless in self-defense.

So sports like boxing are unacceptible? I DEMAND A MULTIPAGE THREAD COMPLETE WITH QUOTE BATTLES NOW.jk<3




Posted by Iris

I think boxing is stupid, but I'm not about to complain for the network to take it off the air. I guess unnecessary would be a better word.

Violence doesn't usually solve problems, but in some rare cases it does help tremendously.

There's no excuse for REAL violence against someone helpless.

Without violence... life would simply be nothing more than boring.. Our movies are violent, celebraties we love are violent, some of our choice in music is violent.. OUR VIDEO GAMES ARE VIOLENT (YEAAA)...

Life would be absolutely doll without violence.

Now I don't necessarily mean everyone needs to turn everything into a headbangers ball and just f*** everyone over, throwing punches left and right.. I'm just saying without the normal violence we have, life would seem less meaningful.

Agree?

Peace would mean nothing if there was no violence, and that would suck. I mess around violently with a lot of my friends, and we get hurt pretty badly sometimes... But it's all in fun, and it makes just resting a lot more enjoyable.

True that, life would be boring without violence.

There is no excuse for violence at Hempfest, only because everyone should be incapable of anger. :D

Actually, I would find it just as meaningful. I could still find plenty of ways to entertain myself in the complete absence of violence. In fact, I don't think a single thing I did yesterday or today, two enjoyable days indeed, involved any violence whatsoever.

Violence = instinct
Rational thought > Instinct, therefore:
Humans > Animals.



Posted by Raptor

No, actually:
survival instinct is what keeps people alive more than anything else.
Therefore, instinct > rational thinking.
Humans are animals. They are mortals dependent on many of the same resources all other organisms are. They are not superior to anything, ultimately, beyond their own little biases.
