How society views violence

     Right then I felt sorry for Martin Brady, although his kind would outlast my kind because people have a greater tolerance for evil than for violence. If crooked gambling, thieving, and robbingare covered ovrr, folks will tolerate it longer than outright violence, even when the violence may be cleansing.
