Yes, of course it's relevant. However, it's not their choice of targets I have a problem with; it's their choice of methods.

I'm not entirely convinced the issue revolves around a lack of options; There is a plethora of different options to choose from -- both direct and indirect. Some may be more effective than others, but any number of them can offer an alternative to the use of combative force, and that's important.

Violence should always be a last resort. Especially when the opposition isn't exactly intent on initiating a fight.
