Yes there are ways to solve problems without using violence...if you don't mind solving those same problems again and again, week after week, month after month, year after year, and century after century. Those solutions will always turn out to be temporary fixes that will always allow those problems to become ever returning ones. The only way to eliminate a problem is to eliminate its root cause.

There's a skeeter on my peeter. Beat it off.

Edit: I just remembered or made up the whole poem

There's a skeeter on my peeter Beat it off There's another on my brother Beat him off There's a skeeter on my peeter If he stays I'll be a bleeder There's a skeeter on my peeter Beat it off

I could still flick it with my finger and kill it. Not violent to me, very violent to the mosquito.

I dunno but think way way WAY before I was born.
