discuss The Vigilante Killing of Child Sex Predators

[Jason]

One offender was murdered in public in the 80s in Louisiana. The vigilante, who was the father of the victim, got no jail time, only probation.

Do you agree or disagree with the outcome?

Note: what he did (the vigilante) was all on video, a rarity for that time.

Of course, no one should take laws into their own hands as it undermines the justice system. His actions were very understandable but yet it is against the law to exhibit such excesses.

The law is very clear that we shouldn't go to the extent of taking laws into our own hands. I understand that the justice system is faulty and imperfect but there should be punishment for crimes and protection for individual rights.
