Samson, don't read stuff into my posts that isn't there. I was quite clear... beating the crap out of someone before executing them is neither necessary nor desirable. It is the 'justice system', not the 'vengence system'. We, as a society, should be better than those who hurt children. What earthly purpose does it serve society to beat the person first? That is an emotional response and the system should not about emotion - it should be about justice. What message do we send the nation's young people if we resort to beating the crap out of someone BEFORE we execute them? It's ridiculous.
So, If vigilantes don't beat anyone before they execute them, would that be OK?
Would you please answer the other question (it wasn't rehtorical):
I'm curious as to know how "low society" needs to get before you would condone the behaviour of vigilantes? Seriously: If you can tolerate a Society that allows Convicted Sex Offenders the freedom to Kill, then WHAT level of "society" is so low as to justify vigilanteism? If Convicts begin to chase people down in the streets in broad daylight and begin eating their brains, then would you be OK with vigilanteism?
I REALLY AM curious.
