But if there were 4 billion Ghandis and 1 Hitler, they could easily win out, peaceful or not. There are non-violent ways of dealing with psychopathic criminals, and I doubt Ghandi would be against incarcerating Hitler. And since Ghandi was originally a lawyer, all the easier it would be to prosecute him. Okay, that last sentence was a joke, but I think you get the point. Pacifism isn't the same thing as apathy. Just because someone's a pacifist doesn't mean they're just going to sit idly by while one violent maniac picks them all off, one by one. But it doesn't mean they have to resort to violence, either. Or at least extreme violence, i.e. murder. Just have to have one of them get behind him and put him in a full nelson, as an example. And then lock him up and attempt to rehabilitate him. But it seems very unlikely that Hitler that could have killed every other person in the world by himself.
