- jes 13y agoWith respect, I think attagart has a valid point. Violence can also be confining someone to a jail cell, or confiscating (taking without voluntary consent) some or all of their property (e.g., imposing a fine on a person) Your modern Australian courts must do this, to compel compliance with their decisions.
- wpietri 13y agoNot really. If you lose a lawsuit and fail to pay, then they just come and take your money and/or your possessions. If you attack the sheriff's deputies carting off your stuff, or assault the bank manager for having given away "your" money, then yeah, you are in for a world of hurt.
