Thank you for your thoughtful comment. I think that it is the principle and unwavering belief in one's right to self-defense that can prevent violence from ever occurring in the first place. If we stand true to our principles, we can, for the most part, avoid the necessity of their use. The word for "meek" in the "meek shall inherit the earth", literally means "is willing to use their weapons but do not need to because of their willingness to use them." I contend that it is therefore our willingness that ensures our safety. Be well.
