Question Presented (from Petition)

Can reasonable jurists debate whether Hobbs Act robbery, see 18 U.S.C. § 1951, is a crime of violence under the elements clause of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c) because Hobbs Act robbery doesn't require the use, attempted use, or threatened use of violent physical force, and can instead by committed by threats to harm property in the future?
