if it necessary to use violence(By which h I mean that there is no other way to achieve the objective) then it is justified (If you believe in the cause) IF it were p[possible to achieve the same result
  iin the same time without violence then violence would be wrong since  it iwould  it be unnecessary and therefor unjustified 
   
  The only way you can say its not justified is if the cause is not so important 
  and that is going to be a matter of individual choice. 
   
  If you are seeking to make a distention between violence against property 
  and humans I agree there is that,   but  I still think that if you really want to stop whaling
  it is hypocrisy to confine yourself to methods like petitions that wont work
  Rather like the people who opposed slavery but not the rights of the Slaves to revolt 
  the net effect of that position WA\s that slavery continued longer than it would have done

Rubbish.

But i'd say that destroying tools of oppression is not violence, and violence
for defence can be necessery even when not justified.
