It's true... love should be our guiding light no matter what the choice/decision at hand. But people will always differ in their opinions/views on whether the ends justify the means, and to what extent one may go in the name of any given cause. So, one person may still say that their chosen course of action is being done out of love for humanity, even though another sees immediate harm in the action and does not believe that the protest action in itself is very loving and therefore lacks justification in their eyes. This is such a subjective issue. I personally think it comes down to whether the protest action in question has a reasonable chance of success, within the existing political environment, of bringing about a sufficient meeting of the minds to expedite or move significantly towards real change. Protest action that does more harm than the healing it achieves is not justifiable in my books. This response forms part of my own response to QOTW :-) !ALIVE !PIZZA !LADY
