You are 100% correct !! But a great many kids need to be controlled until such time as they can demonstrate self control and similarly a great many dictatorial administrations need to be controlled by force until such time as they can demonstrate conformity with international humanitarian law.
Don't miss the point that these school bullies or international bullies would control us by violent force if allowed to. Oh sorry they already try to daily with bombings and terrorist attacks.
The West may not have it all right with our obsession with capitalism, but I prefer that to genocide and suppression.
