But we should also recognise when violence

a. Is bad

b. Is completely legal

And that this is, in fact, a bad thing. And we should question why such violence is legal.

.... Even if you come out at the other end deciding that yes, this is how it should be. The only "wrong" thing is not thinking about it.

Exactly! Violence is literally just a thing that exists (I'd argue a sun swallowing a whole planet is pretty violent, for instance), the essence is in the how, when, and why!
