What can we do to stop people harming each other?

In my past post I defined violence as the outcome of problems that cannot be solve anymore by peaceful means. It is rooted from collective frustrations and grievances. It is because of the deprivation people felt. It is because of the inequality that is very prevalent in an area or between people. Violence is inflicting pain to others or deliberately hurting others. With these meanings and definitions at hand, what can we do to stop people harming each other?

Like what I also mentioned before, one venue where violence is prevalent is in politics but I think the solution for violence must also come from this institution. Since they seem to start most of the violence then they must end it too. One of the most atrocious venue of violence there is probably war. War is waged by states and they can end it too. Another way for politics to solve violence is through equal allocation of resources or goods to the citizens or to the people living in the state. It is their duty and by, even just trying to, fullfill them the rate of violence will definitely lessen.

Although, at the end of the day we must see that we compose politics. We are the ones who are playing it. We still have the last say. At the end of the day politics did not fail but rather we, people, failed. We can stop people harming each other by thinking that violence is a bad thing. It does not lead to anywhere and it is not a very good tool to achieve our wants or needs. It is also a thing that is heavily consequenced.

We can stop harming each other by making each other of the effects that our actions is having. All our actions cannot be good. We must show to everyone that we are hurting other people by doing violent acts. We must show to everyone what violence can lead to. We must show to everyone how violence hurts many people and how much it hurts.

We can stop harming each other by thinking that everyone of us is equal and is a brother. If we think in this way then we will hesitate about hurting someone who is like us. We can stop people harming each other by embracing peace instead of war. I believe that people can be peaceful. They can choose to live peacefully and that there is no such thing as human nature wherein the nature of men is evil. We can stop people harming each other by letting people know concepts like peace, brotherhood, and love.
