Pacifist != Adult

The WordNet definition for “pacifist” includes “adult” in the See Also section. (See http://hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/pacifist and http://www.hyperdic.net/dic/pacifist.htm.) That connection is obviously misplaced and is even a little absurd. The ubiquitous state of war around the world was created solely by adults without consulting a single child. It seems that whoever submitted that connection deliberately compromised the accuracy of the WordNet dictionary for the sake of making an ignorant political statement.

06/28/2006 Update:
Guido Demoor, a father of two, intervened when six [Muslim] "youths" got on bus 23 in Antwerp and began to intimidate passengers. There were some forty people on the bus. Demoor asked the "youths" to calm down, whereupon they turned on him, savagely beating and kicking the man. At the next stop thirty passengers fled the bus. The thugs kept beating Demoor. They then pulled the emergency brake and jumped from the bus leaving their victim to die. –The Brussels Journal

There was only one adult on that bus, and he was murdered by 40 pacifists.

“Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.”

“How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? …Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.”
