Care to eloborate on your thoughts that the choice of being non-violent
is a priviledge?  I, myself, can't imagine ever not having that choice.
 But then again I believe in free will, and maybe you don't.  I suppose
if I had damage to the region of my brain I might lose my ability to
control myself, but otherwise, I always have a choice to act out in
anger and fear or not.  The results might not be to my liking (I might
die), but I do have that choice.
