These look like Mark Passio's definitions. Except for the first one for "force", they are all bogus. Violence is irrelevant; aggression (initiation of force) is what makes an action immoral.
While I sort of understand the point your trying to make, you're redefining words to make it. With no offense intended, I reject your definitions.
Violence: behavior involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something.
Shooting people is violence, no matter how justified it may be. To be clear, I do differentiate between aggressive violence and defensive violence. However, I still assert that it's of the utmost importance that we try to create the world we want without violence.
@magnamiman the only thing that matters is that we both want a better peaceful world & as along as your also anti-slavery then we can get along just fine.

This is mark passio definitions and there is no such thing as initiation of force , force is self-defense therefor a reaction to violence.
