I don’t know why people would get violent. They are just having every penny they and their children, grandchildren, great grandchildren etc will ever earn STOLEN by runaway government.

“Mene mene tekel upharsin.”
Reminds me of that quote from Unforgiven: "It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. You take away all he's got - and all he's ever gonna have".
