That is far too narrow a view. There are many ways a person can be harmed beyond just physical violence. Instead the question we have to tackle is how much harm are we OK with.
- nradov 8y agoIf you believe that then you have defined "harm" so broadly as to be utterly meaningless.
- dagw 8y agoAgain I disagree. Complete social ostracisation for example is every bit as harmful (and almost certainly worse) than a punch to the face. Being fired from your job and/or being denied employment or advancement are again also at least as bad as a punch to the face. I could go on. Limiting "harm" to mean being the victim of physical violence is so narrow as to be utterly meaningless.
