Extreme vigilante justice

[lookout123]

I first read throught this article and my thought was the "bastard got what he deserved". but then i thought a little more and decided that they should have simply restrained him and called the cops and left it up to the justice system. then i remembered that there is very little justice in the legal system - so i am hesitantly thinking that the guy got what he deserved.

If i found a guy outside my 5 year old's window jerking off, would i do any different? maybe. i don't think i would have beat him with a tree branch and then sodomized him with it. if i were enraged enough to go to that extent i think it would make more sense to bind and gag him, drive him 5 minutes to the open desert, put 2 rounds through his forehead then burn the body in an open grave. it could be done in less time and with less effort.

i honestly don't know. i feel the guy deserved it and i don't really have a problem with the street justice he received. the danger i see is that if this becomes acceptable, what would prevent me from killing the neighbor i don't like and then claiming he was a peeping tom?

any thoughts from the cooler minds lurking in the cellar?
