Just out of curiosity, how are they nonviolent if they don't murder? Are there groups out there that just rough people up a little outside of clinics, then let them go?Originally posted by chequita guevara View Post
In the end, the real lesson to be learned from this is that people of all political persuasions turn violence. The leftists riot like morons and get tear-gassed or pepper-sprayed into submission, while the right-wingers do covert, planned violence that gets some results. If you're going to be politically violent, it's better to be a Nazi than a Commie.Comment

Generally, I don't think violence against gays is political violence because it generally is not done to prove a political point. Abortion clinic bombings and the like most often are political violence. 9/11 may have been an act of political violence by rightists (fun one there monolith), but they aren't rightists on the American political spectrum. The OK city bombing is a good example of political violence. It's on the right in the US, but has no analog in places like Europe, as far as I know.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

If I slap you, is that violent or non-violent?Originally posted by Elok View Post
Pro-lifers frequently (which is not to say most of the time, but often enough) engage in pinching, spitting, slaps.

Nope. Not generally. You have to look at the intent and the reasons that they used in committing the violence.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

I would say that in the context of the US today, it could be considered political. If those who commit gay bashing are influenced by public discussions of political/legal questions like gay marriage then I would consider it political violence in addition to a hate crime (a term which I wish had no legal status by the way).12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

You would have to look on a case-by-case basis on motives and what they hope to achieve by the violence.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

Gay marriage and the like are very recent political questions. I would have to see that violence against gays has gone up in the last few years to term it political. Mostly, I think that violence against gays doesn't have a political end in mind.Originally posted by KrazyHorse View PostI came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.
