That world isn’t a better place. The problem with violence is who decides when it’s used, and why it’s used.
I don’t want politicians I support (who in my view are taking reasonable, legal actions) to be assaulted by opponents. It’s why we have due process, so that it’s not just a case of “we have a mob big enough to do this”.
Quartering? That’s awful. Violence or detainment should not be used as punishment or to inflict pain, only to prevent future harmful actions.
Hot take: The world was better when the ruler was trained from birth to govern. Let’s start training people from birth to govern, and give them access to more power. Take away power from the Oligarchical media that has turned the poor against each other.
Of course your Imperial Majesty, Emperor and Autocrat of All the Russias, Moscow, Kiev, Vladimir, Novgorod; Tsar of Kazan, Tsar of Astrakhan, Tsar of Poland, Tsar of Siberia, Tsar of Chersonese Taurian, Tsar of Georgia; Lord of Pskov and Grand Prince of Smolensk, Lithuania, Volhynia, Podolia, Finland; Prince of Estland, Livland, Courland, Semigalia, Samogitia, Belostok, Karelia, Tver, Yugra, Perm, Vyatka, Bolgar and others; Lord and Grand Prince of Nizhny Novgorod, Chernigov, Ryazan, Polotsk, Rostov, Yaroslavl, Beloozero, Udoria, Obdoria, Kondia, Vitebsk, Mstislav, and all of the northern countries Master; and Lord of Iberia, Kartli, and Kabardia lands and Armenian provinces; hereditary Sovereign and ruler of the Circassian and Mountainous Princes and of others; Lord of Turkestan; Heir of Norway; Duke of Schleswig-Holstein, Stormarn, Dithmarschen, and Oldenburg, and others, and others, and others.
The world was a better place when politicians had to worry about get tarred and feathered, quartered, or thrown out of windows.
So never?

Yeah but have you seen the parliamentary brawls from other countries? Way better than the WWE or UFC
