Unfortunately those in charge only listen to violence.

politics is violent, inherently. taxation is violent, inherently. policing is violent, inherently. control of another is violent, inherently.

You just said it yourself. In a civilized order it’s the state that monopolizes violence. You don’t get to invent the laws and prosecute them yourself. Personally I don’t want to live in a society of vigilantism or civil war. Bluster aside, I suspect that you don’t either.
