PUNITIVE FORCE v. PROTECTIVE FORCE.

There are two ways to differentiate between protective use of force and punitive force. What is the thinking?

   * If there is any thinking involving an enemy, then it’s punitive. The same if the intent is for the other person to suffer.
   * If the intention is only to protect my own need, then it’s justified. That’s the only time force is justified. I must have no desire to make the other person suffer.
