As time goes on and as more heinous crimes of these types are committed and go unpunished, eventually we will revert to the Wild West frontier, unfortunately, taking the law into our own hands. Maybe that is why Homeland Security is buying up so much ammo?
I am not advocating taking the law into our own hands but there will be a breaking point where the public demands protection & punishment immediately or they will become a mass of angry mobs, meting out the punsihment the system was too forgiving or soft to do. We will be in a MAD MAX scenario by then...

The lack of justice in the inner-city (largely due to “liberal” policies) is one of the driving forces in the huge homicide rates in places like Chicago. “If they got on of ours,we'll get one of theirs.”)

Assuming those in that "public" don't have the balls or do not their state's permission to protect themselves.

Don't go unarmed.

“...unfortunately, taking the law into our own hands.”

Hmmm, I see nothing unfortunate about that.
