I started on a statement of principles for the PP. It is in the pages section (top right of our current layout). This should be considered a work in progress. It’s just a draft. It can be abandoned, revised, or accepted (there are probably other actions to which it can subjected, too).
I was hoping to establish a standard that was accepting of all people who have more stringent definitions about what “non-violence” means, provided that they agreed to our fundamentals. I was also hoping to distinguish our view from the views of those who might apoligize for violence under certain (unaccpetable to us) conditions.
Have at it. Suggest changes in the comments (here or there) until I can figure out how to make it editable for all of us.
