I can think of several lines of thought that lead to an affirmative answer. One being that violence may be necessary to get rid of political opponents; another that it may be necessary to engage in violence to deal with those involved in the ongoing attempt to undermine democracy, the violence in the latter might be applied by legitimate authorities. That scenario is the one where I might answer affirmatively, while not supporting the violence at all.
Those aren't the only motivations, of course. There's also those that might argue that billionaires adorning lampposts isn't a terrible idea, for example.
