My Question is, Can The Use of Force Ever Be Considered An Act of Compassion?

For example, if someone was physically assaulting another person could another person use physical force to stop them, and if so, could this be seen as an act of compassion?

From my own personal perspective, there has to be an active element of compassion.

Otherwise, I feel that we would be far from compassionate by standing back and letting someone become harmed if we had the capability and means to stop it.

Yet how does this fit with the bigger view of compassion?

This audio answers that question.
