When you do not understand or see the source of violence, you tend to over-sanction its application.

This can have undesired side effects, for example like victims not defending themselves and people watching but not interfering into a public act of violence towards a victim.

HINT: These are my personal thoughts. Good criticism welcome. Partially derived from psychoanalysis regarding its value critique interpretation.

Irish revolutionary #PadraigPearse was born on Great Brunswick Street (now named Pearse Street) #OTD in 1879.

Pearse "kept a school" (in the words of Yeats) and wrote not only on revolution, but on the #PhilosophyOfEducation, most notably his book "The Murder Machine" https://www.irishphilosophy.com/2015/11/10/pearse-education/
