Freedom of Speech (did I miss something?)

Well, Gandhi certainly has his points and success and inspired others. He is right that often times pursuing justice at any cost is often not the best cause. Causing destruction so we can feel good at night is selfish and often conflict yields only losers. So going out screaming in the name of justice and breaking stuff is not something I can ever approve of. Allowing people to die because of your ideals is why I find many "Prime Directive" episodes of Star Trek disheartening. And it is for that reason, that the quote "It is better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer" gets tossed around.

But you know, he was kinda wrong on Hitler I believe.

How should I put it? We certainly need our Gandhis because they are the ones that will make the world better in the end, but we need to protect them to a certain degree too from aggression, as their defeat would be too much.
