I never advocated free violence. I advocated allowing physical violence as a form of self-defence. If that's how you think it works, then you can make your little country. I'm pretty sure you will have only Xians and Wiccans in it. I don't understand how we went from supporting the right to guns ownership to denying violence.
You're just taking what I said and exaggerating it.
Of course people should be permitted to defend themselves when the situation calls for it. But beating the shit out of someone under the allegation that they disrespected you is insanity. Maybe you are honest about it and that was actually deserved. But let's imagine you're a psychopathic motherfucker. And you're angry that Susie didn't want to touch your pickle in highschool because you're fat and ugly. So you walk over to her house and beat her to a pulp because you feel she "disrespected" you.
Citizens must have the right to defend themselves, that's it as far as violence goes. This you are advocating will only open the doors to a more violent society and give psychopaths and criminals more room to maneuver. You are used to this world's shit justice system that doesn't work so I understand why you feel this is necessary.
After we reform the justice system it will be far superior to what you see now. It will actually you know, work. There are ways to find the truth, especially if these people have access to Satan's knowledge. You're just assuming this justice system won't work and that the individual will be deprived of justice anyway. But I assure you that if you have our people behind it, it will.
And yes, if an organized military force is attacking you, the correct course of action is to take cover and call for help, not engage because you're outgunned and outnumbered...if it is found that these system's response was inadequate, the people behind it also have to be called to answer for this. Incompetence too should be a punishable offense. When it comes to citizen's safety there can be no room for failure.

And why this? Because you're afraid of a black eye, a broken bone or else.
Because I'm afraid of psychopaths and criminals being given flawed, poorly thought laws that they can use to their advantage and further terrorize my people and continue to destroy civilization. Violence is the way of the Yehuborim world. A world where people beat and kill each other on the streets and the authorities allow for such. This isn't the world we are creating, this is the world we are destroying.
Like I said before, today we take matters into our own hands because we are in a world of chaos. This won't be necessary when order is restored, and these systems reformed and handled by competent souls.
