Just War Theory

They believed back than that war was the answer. But of course we know that war is not the answer because people such as Gandhi have changed the point of views of people. Gandhi helped save his people without the use of violence. Martin Luther King Jr. did the same thing by leading his people out of segregation. But then their are those times when you do have to use violence to enforce the law. For example if a girl is getting slapped by a guy and someone tries to help by fighting with the guy slapping the girl. Then it is alright to use violence because you are helping a citizen in need of assistance. But to use violence just to conquer is not right. Or to use violence because you can is also not right. You don't have to use just war to help win battles you can always use negotiation to help you overcome your battles.
