Violence leads to more violence

I think the saying violence leads to more violence is completely correct. If someone comes and hits you more than likely you are going to hit them back. Its not being mean or anything it is just self defence. In the book Julius Caesar I think a perfect example of this is when the conspirators kill Caesar they start a Civil War. By killing one person, a very important person but one person none the less, many more people were killed. Yes and in my personel history most of the time I use violence or someone uses violence one me more violence comes from that.
