Vigilante justice is a huge problem when the system fails. There’s a reason the drug trade is so violent - because people in the drug trade have no legal way of settling disputes through normal channels.
So when Trump and Co think they’re protecting their own by stonewalling investigations and preventing the justice system from working as intended, don’t be surprised when people resort to vigilante justice and violence.
I met this guy through an online game. We chatted for a few hours while we did some game missions. He’s from South Africa. Not 100 percent sure where but I know he doesn’t have electricity for a few hours every day. Like a scheduled shut off.
Anywho.
He told me that they have a lot of issues with criminals, especially with sexual assault on women not being held accountable.
So the locals now have taken into their own hands. They often will hang the man in a public space. Or beat him to death.
No one says nothing.
His concern was that , surely some deserve that fate.
But since it’s not being done through a court system with investigation, it is possible that a disgruntled woman could get the people to kill someone. It’s also possible that wrongful identification is made.
I don’t think many women lie about rape. But I do think it does happen rarely.
But this guy from s.africa also admitted that it’s the only way to keep the rape incidents in check because the men know they won’t be prosecuted or held accountable by the law.
But they might end up beaten to death or hung from a flag pole.

What else to do, when the civilized society gives up on being civil? Back to the street justice I guess.
