>While it will not control the murderer, it can and will influence it (violence going 10% down is better than 0%)

Idealists create worse outcomes than realists and pragmatists.

Violence going down 10% can be worse than it going down 0%, if the difference comes from reducing counter-violence done by the oppressed - and reducing based on the agenda and whims of the big time abusers responsible for a big chunk of the other 90%.
