But you regard violence as legitimate and positive political tactic in some circumstances. So did Thomas Mair. I think that belief is problematic, and should not be encouraged. By making the connection between apparently acceptable-for-plaques political violence and the national-day-of-morning kind, I hope to draw attention to the fact that it’s fundamentally problematic.
Everyone believes they are the hero of their own story - including people who hold different political beliefs to our own. They are surely only following the moral code you outline when they stand up for their convictions and reach for the revolver or knife or suicide bomb vest?
The irony here is that acceptable political violence is a facist belief. Perhaps you should investigate facism further: you might find it agreeable. I hear they have the best T-shirts.
