gandhi was non-violent, and he still was probably the biggest factor in getting rid of the british...

The more I hear about that subject the more I think we hear a biased version just like thinking that the Civil War was fought over slavery. Supposedly economic factors had a much larger part, which is much more realistic. But either way, Gandii, MLK, etc changed the system from within in a democracy, which is possible non-violently, not overthrew a system, which isn't.
