Right now there is an exception for violence committed in self-defense for instance. You still can't claim self-defense if you murder someone that shoved you. That's why I think things would get worse, you'd still be on the hook for serious escalation. My definition of minor violence is anything that doesn't leave a trace for more than a few days, so I know it's not legally precise. I'm just arguing for a fringe solution right now, but from the outside it seems that long prison sentences for minor offenses have destroy lives and communities in many US inner city areas, and almost anything might be an improvement. How was your experience with rehabilitation of minor offenders?
