While the preference might be for peaceful solution it does not always work. I am sure a great many of us wish we could talk out all of our differences and come to an agreement about things. The thing is that even two perfectly rational people may not agree if their assumptions are different. While part of me would love for use to be the better people there is a part of me that feels that restricting ourselves and refusing to use the tools of our enemies is unwise. They would not hesitate to do everything anonymous does and more and I see no reason why anonymous should feel compelled to follow the rules put forth by their current target. It would be like playing checkers against someone who was constantly making up new rules that only you had to follow.
