History is full of people who resorted to violence, only to find themselves virtually alone in their delusions of "making a difference." A partial list includes:
Guy Fawkes
John Brown
Charles Manson
Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols
....and all of the lone gunmen of recent years.
We can debate all day about their motives, or if they were brainwashed, etc. But the bottom line is that people doing things like that are all deluded in thinking that they will set something in motion, when all they really set in motion was their own deaths or captivity.
