re: violence vs. non-violence...

I personally would never advocate it although I could totally understand it. Just like in a war, winning the hearts and minds is what eventually wins. You can be wronged a million times, but as soon as you throw away the victim status by seeking retribution, it buries you.

I think the saying; "the pen is mightier than the sword" has never been more true than it is now. With so much access to information and the ability for everyone to broadcast and communicate to large audiences, it is getting harder to hide these injustices. More and more people from all walks of life are seeing the ridiculousness of what goes on and are being angered and embarrassed by it.
