No. Pacifism is useless against the enemy when the enemy is willing to use violence. Even MLK stock-pilled guns in case things got violent.
Also, Ghandi never actually accomplished anything. The media made him a hero, when really his hunger strikes didn't actually contribute to change.

@Peaceandnamaste They're not. The people using them are responsible.
