Of couse we do. - Thats why we gave our states the power to run a criminal justice system, but only under our US Constitutional restrictions preventing violations of individual rights.
You may consider that socialism, but you'd be wrong.
You know very well why people consider what you advocate 'socialism'. You won't agree on what is plainly written in the constitution. You think society can change the rules, without amendment, to whatever they 'deem necessary'. That's a form of socialism.
Its law and order that reigns supreme in a civilized society and not chaos and anarchy.
Authoritarian tyranny by majority rule 'law & order' is just as chaotic as anarchy, as we see in our present WOD's. -- Respect for our constitution must be restored.
Society CAN change the rules, through its government. The Constitution gives Congress authority, to make and change the laws of the land, as they see fit. If you don't like the political makeup of the Congress, work to change the elected officiials who control it. I remind you, the Constitution isn't holy scripture. For the hundreth time, it doesn't take a constitutional amendment to create legislation or change existing law in America.
