The Price of Existence
From now to the end of time both peace and violence have been used to settle all our problems and disputes. Whether it is Russian’s threatening us with bombs or the crazy guy down the street looking to be noticed, people will always result to violence before peace.

Then they kill all your men that fight for the women and children that have been taken. This results in conquering the “weak” through violence and
