A dispute is defined as a debate, controversy, or difference of opinion. Disputes should be settled through dialogue. Settling a dispute through dialoguing can lead to finding a middle ground.

Too many disputes are settled through targeted gun violence.

On March 3, 2012, someone had a dispute with Calvin Johnson. Calvin was shot while at work at the Golden Pizzeria in Newark, N.J.  The difference of opinion was not debated, the difference of opinion was not worked out.  Calvin had no chance to try to find a middle ground. Calvin is dead and his six children are left without a father.
