Violence is NOT ALWAYS an option

No pity enough not every crime is punishable by law. In most cases law is not punishing at all. Police will tell you they can only help you after you been killed. An advocate ones told me: there is a big difference between being right and getting your right! I think that already says enough. This besides of the fact that the society/country I live in is way more interested in helping (out) criminals as vitims.

I loved the movie "Enough" and it is on my top ten must sees annually. Sometimes over dramatizing something is the best message. I like revenge type movies. I think it is good therapy for some of us. We know this is wrong and you shouldn't take justice into your own hands but you can't set by and watch it happen to you and yours either. Proactive and ready is something people should think about.

Violence is NOT ALWAYS an option , i agree with you, this problem arise when Government is not responding on the time, then this problem arise and some unlawful people join this, agitation , violence is not good for anyone, it harm other people also who are not involve on this agitation, some time governemt is not responding due to when they make a law the bad people who are in government they come under the scanner and the government is gets is problem , because law is made for everyone evam politician also , so they are hisitate to make the law, government have power to kill the agitaion by force applied , then what citizen do then?. they cant wait for another election , hariom

According is not an option always because it will be the end of everything.

So true that every crime is punishable by law if... the criminal got caught, but most criminals these days always got away. They were able to live a free life and have not faced the punishment that are meant for the horrible act they did. I am thankful though that at least God knows all that happen in this world and I know that not any one of us will be able to escape from His punishment. I really don't know what will I do if I see my loved one being hurt by another person. They would never like what I'd do to them of course.

Violence is never to be exercised by any person whatever the reason is...that's what I believe. Law is created to prevent violence against people at all cost...But I really can't say what I'll do if someone is to hurt my loved ones, and I hope no one would try to hurt them, I also hope that I can stay true on what I believe if that really happens. And the movie you're talking about... I haven't watched it but I think I'll watch it some other time.

I think i saw that movie, but i'm not sure... If the movie was the one that i had in mind, i didn't really enjoy it, probably because the oppressor was a man and the one that had to defend them self is a woman, so the audience can accept the decision that she made in that movie... but what if the oppressor was female and the one that had to protect their loved one was a man... can the audience accept the decision to kill the woman? In real life, if ex-husband or ex-bf kill ex-wife or ex-gf, nobody will hear his side of the story, it's different when ex-wife or ex-gf who kill their ex-husband or ex-bf, everybody want to hear her side of story.

We need to recover our minds and think slowly and make expectations about the bad effects of violence.

Yes, I agree with what you said. We should fight for rights, benefits, justice and other things by ourselves. And then I think I have an interest in watching the movie "Enough".

For me it is a kind of self defense . I would not resort to getting ones life. I will try my best not to kill but would just paralyze the perpetrator maybe so that he will not succeed in his dreadful intention to me. I will never get anyones life , a big big no no to our belief. Violence is not an option and will never be. Communication is , cool relax mind also . I believed anything can be done in cool , communication. Listen and be heard .

Hi val1234. Every crime committed by any culprit or offender is punishable by law regardless on what is the nature of its commission. However, everyone has the right to claim the presumption of innocence and that the litigation should be undergone "due process" to give a fair trial of both parties, that's precisely the rules that enshrined in the constitution. True indeed that not everybody have been awarded by the so called "due process" but it doesn't mean that the whole justice system was revolutionizing its rule to the entire judiciary. There are only few who will practice such but most of them are still reputable justices and hold its principle for the equal rights of every individual. As the saying goes, "no one is above the law" and that, we should refrain in following such practice to put the law in our hands because no justice at all has been prevail in this land. (that's a wrong concept & principle). In addition, the example that you are referring to is all about "Self Defense". Self defense is not actually a direct form of violence - it is however a kind of act to protect oneself out from danger or to any harm that have been put into. So therefore, as long as you have an option to defend your rights or protect yourself it cannot be considered as violence and it is not an excuse nor an option. With the above cited explanation, this will clearly emphasize how our rights being performed and when we certainly exercise our rights of protection against any danger brought by any person. Culprits who are committed crimes are therefore subject for a due process during litigation. Further, thorough and in-depth investigation and careful evaluation on the evidences presented by its council must be cautiously observed and applied for the benefits of a fair trial. Whereby, no person or individual has the mere right to use his capacity or capability to put the law on his own hands, that's absolutely against the law. We have the law that stipulated in our constitution order that people will be guided properly and know its boundary and limitation pertains to their actions.

Violence is illegal and the offender is subjected to penalty by law. In relation to the example as stated above (if someone was going to hurt or kill others), protecting oneself or others from being hurt or killed is a necessity. One can call the police instantly. I don't know if doing something ''violence'' to the predator in order to stop him or her attacking the victim in this circumstance is a crime.

i dont know yet the movie that you mention, but about 'will happen' that like what you think and if you know , it think just do the best that you can do. Sometimes justice is very expensive price, for any condition and sometimes not fair if you are the right ppl, and could be the 'false' ppl can be free because he/she is 'powerfull' person. i guess we can not apply this in all condition,that's always exception even we knew that's not really fair.

LOVE is the only way to spread peace in the globe. Violence kill the brotherhood through out the world. Violence can not be a way to solve problem in any mean. Violence outrage the modesty of love. Violence propagate the hate and cruelty in the society. So be wiser and choose the path that brings prosperity to you and to the people around you.

Thanks to the development of modern technology and social science, now we have many ways to deal with the problems around us. We can call the police, put the cases to the law and ask NGO for help. So that we can solve our problems in a legal way without use violence. To many people, they do not know they can solve problems in those ways or they do not own enough knowledge to use these methods to deal with their problems, so they are up to violence. I think the best way to avoid violence is telling people how to use their rights and powers in a suitable way.

The rule is right, We should not justice in our hands. This however is different from what we call "self defense". It would be so dumb of a person if he did not do something to protect himself from any criminal all because he believes he should not put justice in his hand. Also it is wrong to wait for the police, if you can do something to defend the victim from the perpetrator. It is lack of concern if you just watch when you can do something. I would say that the rule must be properly applied depending on situation.

Self defense is justified. The "people power" was also justified by the rest of the world when the Asian dictator, Marcos was ousted but I doubt whether the so called Edsa II was.

I don't care what the law says to be honest. If anyone or anything intends to harm me or anyone I know, I would do anything to stop them from doing it. Even if it means killing them. I mean they are the ones who tried to kill/violate us. So why on earth are we not allow to use whatever means necessary to protect ourselves? The criminals should know that when committing crimes there's always a huge risk/consequences that comes with it.

In an emergency situation where our life is in great danger, it is a must to defend ourselves and do all the necessary things so that we do not to get hurt or killed. That would be called self defense rather than violence. I think I am going to check out the movie soon :)

Its not so much a matter of criticism as much as it is that if you believe in the system vigilante justice undermines the whole thing. At that point you become part of the problem.
