Line 84:
* Throughout [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]], Donatello has been shown to be the most peaceful of the Turtles, but he still needed to be a kickass fighter. So this personality trait was cemented with him fighting with the rather less lethal Bo, instead of something sharp.
** He's also stated a hatred of guns several times, although it's not clear whether he considers them an "immoral" weapon or whether he's just not comfortable using them.
* In the [[Ultimate Universe|Ultimate]] [[Ultimate Marvel|Universe]], [[The Chessmaster|Professor Xavier]] is a technical pacifist due to his desire to have mutants rise above humanity's baser instincts. For example, rather than simply defeat <s> [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]</s> [[Complete Monster|Magneto]], he creates an impressive explosion to make it seem as though he perished and then takes it upon himself to rehabilitate him. [[Oh Crap|It]] [[GoodNice Job Breaking It, Hero|doesn't work]].
* [[DC Comics]] Western character Bat Lash. He sees himself as a pacifist, and hardly ever uses his gun (although he's ''very'' good with it). And yet, he keeps finding himself in situations where he has to beat people up, or even kill them.
* [[Nikola Tesla]] would never lay a hand on anybody. Heavens no! Why would he do that when he has a perfectly functional [[Atomic Robo]]t to do it ''for'' him?
