A state monopoly on violence is not a terrible idea and needs to be enforced somehow.
Maybe it’s pedantic of me to say this but was not a state monopoly on violence and there certainly isn’t now. A lot of goon squads are composed of private security forces.

There should be a state monopoly on violence, and that violence should be heavily regulated.
Sadly, neither of those statements are currently true.
