How well trained does someone have to be to not be violent?

This sort of thing has been going on in war since there has been war. I'm not sure what kind of training you would like to do, maybe sensitivity training? Empathy with the enemy?

I'm a liberal, however, and I'm proud of that. I care about the condition of the poor, including our troops and reservists, most of whom live in poverty are impacted quite severely by the Bush Administration's tax cuts for the rich and benefit reduction for the poor.
Ummm harmless, since the top 50% of the wage earners pay 97% of the taxes, how does one cut the taxes of someone not paying taxes? How are the poor hurt by Bush's tax cut? Why is it the governments job to steal money from me to give to someone else? If you feel so much for the poor, go work in a soup kitchen, and give YOUR money to them. I'm sure the money you spend on your internet connectivity would keep a hungry child fed all year. Why you feel YOU have the right to take what I earn and give to someone else is beyond me.

And reguardless, despite all the give aways, do we still have poverty? Do we still have crime? Are the schools better? Liberalism works on feelings, not results. Something a good parent teaches their child early on is the value of hard work, and that you can't just expect things handed to you, yet this lesson is lost on liberals giving away other peoples money.

I too care about the poor, but liberal programs don't slove poverty, they enable it.
