You are trying way to hard to fit violence into your narrative. The POWER of laws leading up to violence have done just as much or I would say MORE DAMAGE than the war itself. The war/violence is the relief valve for what has ALREADY happened.
You’re brainwashed if you want anything but equality under the law. The “kings men” should have the same exact rights and restrictions as the rest of us. Heck the king should have the same rights and restrictions as the rest of us.
You’re talking about the government’s violence. That’s kinda the point of the people having the police powers, the “government” doesn’t get to have any more capacity for violence than the rest of us.
