I have always been confused about certain things having to do with samurai. The thing that has confused me the most is this: in a bunch of cases, I have come across many people saying that you should never have to fight, or draw your sword unless there is nothing else you can do. While this makes sense to me, you often hear stories about samurai drawing their sword and killing another person for an insult to their lord, or something along those lines. While it could be that they feel as though there is nothing else that they could do but strike that other man down, it seems to me that there are other options. Anyone have anything to add?
sorry if i put this in the wrong section.
