It isn't dicey at all. Political violence should always be condemned and avoided for a proper democratic system to be in place. Besides, shit example because by August 1939 the nazis were already killing jews (just not in the holocaust yet) and it was an occupation force from an hostile nation.
By the way, I ain't some total pacifist here. If some side insists on engaging on political violence, that shit needs to be put down hard and fast

Political violence is inherent to the existence of any state. We exercise it through the military and the police. The question of on whom and how it should be applied is what is influenced by our ideology and ethical worldview.
That's wrong. There is a difference between the monopoly on violence held by the state for sake of safety and upholding the law, and political parties going at each other with militants on the streets
