Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mrs. Marie- Jewell is correct. If I lifted up my hand to try to strike somebody else, that would be an act of violence because I would be attempting to strike somebody else. A case where violence is threatened is where I sit here and I say I'm going to hit you but I don't do anything. I'm threatening an act of violence as contrasted with a physical move which is captured under the heading of an attempt. If I move towards Mrs. Marie- Jewell in a threatening fashion, that could be construed as an act of violence. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
