Thanks Element, I knew there was more than one simile and teaching on this.

Bodhisvasti, this and other teachings give these examples as a lesson in attachment.
When one is willing to give up this body then they are not attached to it.
Violence is never an unintentional action, which also signifies attachment to something/someone.

*EDIT*
Also whats to say that it isn't Karmic effect that this situation happened?
And this could be the situation to create positive Karma by NOT being violent.
