Sorry to be on the defensive, but Cagueno-
I am in college. I haven't lived with my mom for seven years now, and I have never had television in my own home. I have been studying peace and conflict for some years now and so far one of the strongest lessons I have learned is that everyone has their own oppinions and most people believe in them strongly. People will always think that they are right while others are wrong--and that is OK but if we ever want to rise above violence we all need to learn how to communicate more effectively by trying to understand where the "other" is coming from. I don't think that means that everyone needs to agree, obviously that is impossible. I am definately not claiming to be anywhere close to an expert! I agree with you that everyone needs to take on some responsibility, I just think that the "Leftist Movement" sees reality in a different way than you, but that doesn't mean that they cannot perceive reality. I'm not trying to defend anyone, I'm just trying to encourage more openess in this forum.
