<!-- you can have any number of categories here --> [[Category:Libertarian Propaganda Terms]] {{DES | des = This is a bad misdirection. The state has a monopoly on JUDGING what violence is LEGAL. This allows the state to permit and regulate violence by lesser governments and private parties, as well as making some of its own violence legal. We deliberately delegate much violence to the public state, because private parties are too partial when unregulated. | show=}} <!-- insert wiki page text here --> Government is not a monopoly of legitimate violence (force) in the US: there are federal, state, county, and local governments, all of which can use force. They all have their own laws and police, and many have their own courts. Individuals are also allowed many sorts of legitimate violence in defense of person and property, as any gunloon can tell you. Indeed, the US was set up that way precisely to avoid problems of monopoly. <!-- DPL has problems with categories that have a single quote in them. Use these explicit workarounds. --> <!-- otherwise, we would use {{Links}} and {{Quotes}} --> {{List|title=State monopoly on violence|links=true}} {{Quotations|title=State monopoly on violence|quotes=true}}
