The redefinition of the noun word "violence" has
been noted in the www.merriam-webster link as "fervor" which isn't
surprising, as this well-known website has inserted itself into the left of
center political spectrum, and which can be used by those who say they are
protesting against other individuals of a certain religion who are blamed for
what is happening in the Mideast, yet those people of a certain religion are in
a place where they should be allowed free access, like a school.
I did include another link to a website that didn't have the
word "fervor" as one of the definitions, nor did it have it in a
sentence, the Wikipedia.org site gives a thorough explanation about
the noun word "violence" together with explanations about the origins
of that word with its usage.
Insofar as the why of my choice for this month's
wordsplusmeanings blogspot post, I've been struck at how violence in all its
forms is a big part of our 21st century era, as it was during the
early 20th century, considering that even the courts took part, for
instance, the Sacco and Vanzetti miscarriage of justice, done to placate a
public that demanded the use of the courts to inflict punishment, even when
what happened was a result of a protest by a group who had political opinions
opposite to the politics of the Wilson administration and the majority of
Americans. And I have included the Wikipedia.com thorough explanation of
what happened to these 2 men, who were immigrants with a foreign political
philosophy antithetical to the majority of Americans, some might say, the trial
and effect is like the current administration's zeal to deport the people here
unlawfully, but, the rap sheets of those detained and the killing of American
citizens by them belies that accusation.
As for those who are opposed to those ICE arrests, don’t' use "violence" against ICE, use
your vote to change the existing law that codify deportation of anyone who is
has come and stayed here illegally, even the nice gardener who does your lawn,
and your housekeeper, too.
