      To a lot people, the analogy is that the dangerous criminal with a gun has already broken in and is aiming the gun at them, they’re in survival mode, and are not looking for non-violent solutions. I get your perspective, just trying to show you why so many are saying to “shoot the Nazis”.

      There’s always more options. However, there needs to be a point where you don’t let them keep going. Sure, we could have continued to negotiate with Hitler instead of going to war. At some point you have to accept that the thing you’ve been trying to avoid is the best option left.
