Warning: I was just ranting earlier and decided to post it here...could easily be a pile of BS, but who knows? Well...some people know, nevermind. Just void the italics.
Everybody lives with violence in some way or another, it surrounds us, it is in our television programs, it is everywhere if you just look. As humans, we see violence as a very negative thing and shun it, and get away from it as quickly as we can. Well, the way I see it, is that the problem with violence and the feelings that come in that package is that we cannot escape it. No matter how much we love and give, violence is always going to be there. Not necessarily because of other parts of the world and their matters, but because violence and anger and wasting is all part of what humans are. We use violence to get what we want, and when we have it we can move on and work on getting more things. We cut down forests, is that not violence? Humans can be exactly like the bully in the playground, but with one major difference. The bully in the playground does so because he was likely mistreated and in turn mistreats others...but humans can act like that snotty boy because part of our nature, I believe, is to take what we need and make what we want. To try to avoid violence would be trying to avoid smelling or seeing, or thinking. Perhaps to us is a means to an end, perhaps violence is enjoyable to us because we've gone so far from what we once were, and most of our primal urges are ignored or controlled...but violence is always here, though the form changes. I believe that violence isn't some negative thing to avoid, but something that we have become used to. I am note sure as to where I am going with this, but the commuters, the workers, how much violence are they used to? How much have they had in their own lives? Humans cannot be perfect because there is one trait that will always be there, utopia or no. We are violent animals and we cannot ignore that.
