Definitely.
It's a violent world. If you think you can magically opt out of that, somehow, you might have lived a massively privileged life (to this point).
That being said, look at all the people in the thread who are afraid to admit possible abstract, hypothetical support for something. On a hard-left instance, of an alt platform, that I'm currently using over Tor. That should be an indicator of how much actual will there is to brave a shooting war. (You didn't ask if we wanna revolution specifically, but this is .ml so I have to address it)
The practical takeaway of the literal question is much more nuanced and subtle.
