When Violence is the Answer: by Tim Larkin | Conversation Starters
Most people wrongfully stigmatize violence and believe that it is only the criminal-minded who will consider its use. They don’t want to think about this taboo subject, including the possibility of being victimized by violent people. Unfortunately, this does not prevent them from being immune to violence.
