Perhaps EVERYTHING is not as black and white, but some things are. Mass shootings at malls, schools, churches, and even political rallies are never justified.
Emphasis mine.

Never? Sampson pulled down a temple and killed thousands of Philistines. Apparently he had his god's blessing and that of his fellow Israelites.

Mobs break into and loot the home of a government official, forcing the man and his family to flee for their lives. Some people might call them thugs, in American history they are part of the Sons of Liberty and our original patriots.

Violence as a political tool is going to be with us for the foreseeable future as it was in our past.
