Oh, I personally have no doubt about it. Even if it was STRICTLY REQUIRED by Islam, I believe there would be people who lived a non-violent lifestyle anyway.
Just as there are people who take Allah's name in vain, worship idols (although I am not sure yet about this year's crop), or do horrible things to a dog with a fork, even though it isn't "allowed". Any group of people is made up mostly of people, and about the only thing that you can count on with people is that they are ALL strange ducks, and wander away from the herd at times.
