Great way to accelerate the country into a lawless state. As soon as you develop a system where you give people no choice and offer them either to submit or fight … more and more people will want to fight to survive.
This is the main reason why civilization moved away from capital punishment. Governments realized that if you just severely punish people for anything and everything, people will see that the have no choice and just fight right away because they know they will be killed for it anyway no matter what they do.
