Why the Greatest Advocates of Nonviolence Didn't Condemn Anti-Racist, Anti-Fascist Acts of Violence
As usual, it all depends on what the violence is for. It was alright to commit violence to keep the Union. Would it have been alright to protect the civil rights marchers from being beaten and hung? We have police and military forces, because we know that violent people cannot always be stopped by non violence. Sitting around singing Kumbya would not have stopped Hitler, it took military force to do that. Thus, violence to stop violent people from committing violent acts is good.
