Why do some people do such stupid extramsit things. Most peole probaallly don't care aboout the issues and just want a fight. In japan 7 korean people cut off ther leittle finger because japna was in the world cup because of its human right rrecord. Whats the point. People don't like extrame views becuse ther to much cahnge

I would agree that very often people do some very stupid, and immoral or amoral, acts in the name of 'extreme' views. However, this is not true out of necesitty. For example, I hold what could pretty much be called the most extreme possible views politically when it comes to the economic and libertarian measures, being a staunch anarcho-communist. I also hold extreme philosophical views, both stoical and cynical.
However, I would never perpetrate harm upon another human being except under the circumstances of defence of another human being. This is because one of my very extremely strongly held beleifs is in the total equal right for all people to live with the minimum of harm brought to them, and also a strong beleif in the phrase "do unto others as you would have them do unto you".

true, but since there is no organisation to ensure that all views are displayed equally and in an unbiased manner to people, and since some views are simply pushed out of the mainstream media and politik, then this system runs on people all vying to have their voices heard in any manner possible. Some 'extremist' action, i would completely agree with. The Buddhist monks in vietnam, for example, who immolated themselves in the streets as a protest against the US presence there, were in my opinion greatly admirable.
