[ARC5] Very OT: Pacifists (Was: opinions?)

[David Stinson]

Ever read the history of the Quakers in the early settlement 
of the Americas, and how many people died to protect those
who would not help protect either themselves or their neighbors?  

     "Pacifism is a fashion statement purchased
        with other people's blood..."

    " Peace and brotherhood are wonderful dreams
       which are dead impotent against cold steel...."
