Subject: Query about Anarchy

For the past year I have really been rolling over the fundamentals of Anarchy in my head. I have come to the realisation that anyone who creates vandalism and destruction in the name of anarchy is just giving in to what the Government wants society to view as anarchy. How can so called "anarchists" believe that they are helping their cause, my cause, by destroying private and public property? Are we not sinking to the level of the government? If you ask anyone to define Anarchy, they will most likely say chaos and destruction. On the contrary, that is what the Government wants society to think. Why wouldn't they? The government fears anarchy more than anything, why? Because we know the truth and how life should be lived. We are tired of being mindless slaves to the corporate businesses. Now, my own definition of Anarchy is free thinking. Government is not a necessity, because man is a social animal. We strive on social contact. Besides, with no government, there would be no weapons of mass destruction. We wouldn't have to worry about terrorist attacks. In conclusion, I feel that people who cause destruction in the name of Anarchy are giving us real anarchists, the ones who think about the flaws in society, a bad name. There are many ways to start an anarchist movement without needless violence. We do not need to sink to the level that our Government has reached!
