You either live with the F-ed up system, try and change it (Go Cruz)(or even Trump), or launch a revolution. But being and supporting vigilantism only gets you anarchy.
Or have you forgotten about the so called blacklivesmatter movement? By their 'reasoning' they`re 'seeking justice' too, so you still like vigilantism then?
Again, not arguing with you. I generally agree with you. Then I not the sanctuary cities movement, and how mayors and city councils are getting away with Voluntary Manslaughter. In WA state, Inslee declared upon taking office that he would not fulfill his responsibility to enforce the death penalty.
As such, we have elected officials already choosing to interpose their own personal set of laws they are willing to enforce. They are already working extra-legally, and yet our recourse as an average citizen is limited to ONLY the statute remedies.
Did the elected officials not realize that by imposing their own set of unwritten laws they’d be inviting vigilantism as a reasonably expected reaction to their own brand of it?
Rule of law is the only way to go. I agree with you. However, the actions of elected officials make staying within the lines much more difficult, in my view.
