Do you know of whom they are speaking of when they say the 10%?

It could be liberals, conservatives, moderates, expats from Europe, etc.

I cannot believe that people think that violence is a good answer to anything.

I don’t upvote these recent killing of political figures or C-levels at companies that destroy people’s lives.

I sympathize with those that fight injustice and want the world changed for the better. But, there are often non-violent ways to do this.



> I cannot believe that people think that violence is a good answer to anything.

There is quite a bit of philosophical arguments and discussions backing violence as _a_ solution, albeit not the only solution and usually one reserved for when other measures fail.

Look to this treatise as a start[1]

If you think it’s never a solution then all you have done is unilaterally disarmed, and ceded decision making power to those who still keep violence in their toolbox
