A man with a gun and a baton beating you (if you resist) and physically forcing you into a tiny windowless cage and locking you in for an extended period of time is... not violence, you suggest? And you claim words mean things? Who is being Orwellian here? The only difference between your argument and literally 1984 is you've introduced a new ministry of non-violence, the organization that enacts non-violence on citizens by physically forcing them into torture chambers. Is grabbing someone in an alley and kidnapping them violent? No?
