Those who 'abjure' violence can do so only

I have known many "pacifists" who claim their response to threat and violence would be to call the authorities. My kids dubbed them "pass-the-buck-afists".

Good article. Thanks.

Are wargamers aggressive. Certainly not in the way described in the article, any more than the population at large. Probably less.
