I think the whole "Justice vs Rehabilitation" is the wrong way of looking at things. Justice is just another way of saying revenge and rehabilitation is just being touted becasue jails are overcrowded.

I look at it all in a more cold, efficient manner.

People that have proven themselves capable of killing are dangerous and should be locked away forever, so that other people that don't kill people can be safe.

On topic. Yes, I do think taking justice in your own hands can be appropriate.

Sometimes, I imagine what I would do to someone if that person did or tried to do something horrible to someone I love. I wouldn't hestitate a second to take justice in my own hands. Especially if I were that kid's father.

I agree with your post. FTR, I think people should only take justice into their pwn hands when the law proves to be incompetent (like in the case of my first post).
