Which is more Violent?
Which is more violent?
A gun?
A Vote?
I think a vote is more violent.
Look at it this way, a gun, even if fully loaded and accompanied by more guns, in the hand of a single individual, can determine the future forever of multiple people. The Virginia Tech shooting claimed the lives of 33 people - the most of any school shooting in American history. Second most is the University of Texas at Austin massacre where 14 people were killed.
A single vote, however, can affect every person on the planet. Each election has the possibility of being decided by a single vote. Though that exact scenario has not yet happened in major American politics, it is still possible. One vote for the wrong person can put them in power and can have an effect on everyone.
