I can guarantee you that mob justice would be worse.
It used to be commonplace for innocent black people to be hung because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time and a bunch of pissed off white people wanted to kill someone.
The state making that a crime and enforcing it is what stopped it from being commonplace.
No crystal ball, but history repeats itself. That shit isn’t even in the distant past.
Do you honestly think that groups of people with no experience in criminal investigations will get it right more often than people who dedicated their lives to it?
i think that the systems that govern us are unjust in a myriad of ways. i’m willing to tolerate some level of injustice in dealing with antisocial behavior, since i get that already, if it means we can throw off all the rest of the oppression we face from being governed.

i don’t see how. do you have a crystal ball?
You don’t need a crystal ball to observe history.
the past isn’t the future
No shit, but looking at past results is how we make informed decisions about literally everything. What the fuck is your point?
they don’t know what a future looks like without the state or capital.
We can cross that bridge when we get there. Until then, using actual data is more useful than wishful thinking.
to be clear, you don’t know the future
No shit. Again, what’s your fucking point? Stop being vague and obtuse and just say what you’re getting at.
