Keep in mind I mean any assult and any damage, so if he swings a knife at you and you manage to break his arm? You're fucked.
The rules get really fucked for non violent crimes though. Some punk trys to break in an steal your tv? Well you better hope his neck doesn't hurt after you deck him otherwise you're screwed.
