So you believe it's sometimes acceptable to initiate force against another.

You take my statement "An implication which may be correct," (a statement which also means the implication may not be correct)as a foundation to attribute to me a belief that I did not claim and use that as justification to say that I am scary. Is that a subtle strawman, a subtle ad hominem or a waste of time?

Your claimed "social contract" implies that the government can arrest be for turning "outlaw". I can be punished for breaching an agreement I never made. But that's only one example; please don't try and take the ridiculous position that you don't believe force can be initiated against me. Taxation, victimless crimes, and plenty more examples come to mind.
