All law is based on the explicit threat of violence.
The more troublesome your "offense" and the more you resist, the worse the violence becomes. First you might get warned, if you're lucky. Then your money is taken from you. Maybe your property things you are temporarily allowed to have are taken. Maybe your rights written permission to do things gets revoked. Then you get locked up in a cage. Then you get tortured with complete isolation and deprivation of human needs. Then you get murdered. That's assuming you didn't already get murdered somewhere along the way.
Every step of this is violence. Starting with verbal aggression and psychological pressures, and escalating into progressively more visceral and deliberate infliction of physical harm.
ALL LAW IS VIOLENCE
Without the violence, what would law even be?
Just pointless scribbles on old pieces of parchment. Captured echoes of the impotent whining and grumbling of sweaty old men, and the mewling of the meddlesome women that surround them. Nothing more.
It is the violence that makes them into something more. It is Violence that turns men's will into Law. Violence is not some unspeakable evil. Nor is it intrinsically good. Violence is a means to an end. Violence is a tool. And it gets things done.
VIOLENCE IS EVERY MAN'S BIRTHRIGHT, TO SHAPE THE WORLD TO HIS WILL
Your ancestors knew this. Your enemies know this. They use it against you. Every day.
If you can't, or don't, or won't, ever wield it, then you are barely even a man. You're domesticated garbage. And you will be dominated. You will be owned. And you will whine. You will moan. You will groan. But you will submit. Because that's all you can do, if you reject violence.
