I think you have the options mixed up. Option 1 is voluntary trade. Option 2 is violence.

You appear to be saying that people would prefer voluntary trade, but that they will resort to violence if they see no other option. Which historically I think is largely true.

Option one is always violence. It is the only option always on the table.
