So you trust vigilantes to deliver justice? I don’t.

You live in the city don’t you? All you have to do is pick up the phone and the police come screaming to your place.

They don’t. They have a right to protect their children, protect their homes and protect their streets.

You wouldn’t have made a very good founding father. “Oh, let’s just let King George protect us”.

But do you trust the police and military?

The people in Mexico don't. There is no police like we know.

There is no justice. There is no recourse. If your 11 year old daughter is kidnapped, raped, and killed to make a snuff film, you have no one that will even listen to your complaint.

How do you live in a society like that?

Vigilantism is expected in a culture where law and order has been abandoned.

While I don't support vigilantism, I can sure see why it has come about. Do you understand why?
