From Wiktionary:
n. - warrior (plural warriors)
A person who is actively engaged in battle, conflict or warfare; a soldier or combatant.
From Middle English werreour, from Anglo-Norman warrier Old French guerreier (“fighter, combattant”), from Late Latin guerra (“war”)
And from Wikipedia’s entry on the term:
A warrior is a person specializing in combat or warfare, especially within the context of a tribal or clan-based society that recognizes a separate warrior class or caste.
And from Dictionary.com:
a person engaged or experienced in warfare; soldier.
How could the word “warrior” NOT automatically imply war and violence? It literally means “one who wars”. It has ALWAYS meant that. It has never NOT meant that. I just… what?
