No see I really want to press you on this, because I want to hear how a theoretical stance in support of violence against unarmed, peaceful protestors (Charlottesville) is equivalent to support of violence against violent armed people who more often than not are the ones initiating the violence.

One of those could maybe be called vigilantism. The other isn't, its terrorism.

I won't be making that argument because I gave two examples of things that I disagree with, not one that I support.

I don't think violence is ever warranted against another non-violent person whom you have ideological differences with.

I don't think it is moral to act as an individual judge against any non-violent person and Carry Out violence.

Punching someone because you think they are a Nazi or communist is not okay
