Description
We cover topics on organizations that exist today that battle against incredibly violent humans who either willingly or unwillingly cause harm to people, animals, and the planet. We mention organizations that use violence to either prevent or protect against assailants.  Organizations that sedate and then cut the horns off of rhinos to deter poachers who will kill for the rhino's ivory; or of Sam Childers (who you may know from the Hollywood adaptation played by Girard Butler, Machine Gun Preacher) who took arms against the war lords in Sudan and literally use machine guns to save kidnapped kids who were turned child soldiers.  These organizations use violence for the sake of good. Do we applaud these organizations? Do we forsake them? Or, do we feel that we have entered into a grey area?  In this Host2Host episode we discuss the conflicting and controversial actions of these violent GoodCauses. Welcome to the GoodViral Podcast!
