Violence Is Not the Answer!
**By Selma Cook **
Violence is never positive. Violence breeds more violence. Often people get confused about the meaning and use of this word and think they can be violent in order to defend right and so on. But this is not so.
When defending what is right, and when defending yourself, your home, your country, your way of life ? other words are used like self defense and assertiveness. Because there is a clear intention behind your actions in such cases, the end is positive even if you fail. Such acts are colored with feelings of nobleness and self sacrifice and these actions are not based on revenge or anger.
Violence, on the other hand, is based on another intention and the outcome is always BAD and NEGATIVE.
When there is violence there will always be a VICTIM including the Perpetrator who falls a victim of his/her own violence.
