So in other words, violence makes people behave. Have you left the house recently? Where is this proof that using violence towards others will make them respect you? Anyone who has even a smidgeon of real world knowledge can tell you that using violence against someone will make them fear you, sure, but respect you? No!
All you will achieve by making respectful people into violent human beings with a lack of self control will be lowering us to the level of said disrespectul human beins who act like animals rather than acting like civilised people. Your mentality is no better than the mentality of dictators who use violence as a form of control.
Obviously your knowledge of history and of basic psychology is flawed and possibly nonexistent so rather than posting 6 paragraphs correcting your statements quote by quote, I'll make it short and sweet: Using violence as a means of control will create a people that are angry and fearful, not respectful. If history is any indicator, said fearful individuals will eventually turn US into the uncivil animals we would rightfully be. In the end, using injustice to correct injustice will backfire as history has shown it to work out.
IIN I think it should be law to hit rude people with a stick?
