I am refering to the old school non-violence by the way, not the modern non-resistance crap. What are your toughts?

I'm not violence neutral, I'm anti-violence. Defensive violence is 10000% necessary as long as military of any kind exist. As long as there are military, there is the capacity to create the world we are living in now through a combination of aggression and survival. When there can't be military because there would be no point of forming one, only then would non-violence make sense to me.
