For me, right now it's important to stand and be counted.
This is a big part of the reason why I've gone to rallies as I have. Violent comments are expected and can be ignored, especially when you are with 400 or so of your closest friends.
My goal is not to make a political point at all cost, but to do that which I think is right.
It seems to me that peace radiates outward from people of compassion and cannot be forced upon people. Peace means more to me than cessation of military hostilities -- it means healing rifts that led to these in the first place.
