More reasons to use a cheap burner when traveling (in addition to any potential border checkpoint shenanigans)
Tell me the world doesn't need vigilantes, do it.
One day maybe, but right now we just need real consequences for these types of crimes. It was premeditated, not accidental by any means. Just drains of society preying on perceivably weaker people.
Can I argue that increasing punishment generally doesn't decrease crime long term, only short term. The change we need is to address the root cause not to increase the size of the stick.
Sure, I agree to that. But right now, people that prey on weaker people need consequences, not slaps on their wrists and a promise they won't do it again. You can't "accidentally" rape someone. Lock em up
Stealing from someone in public is quite a different crime from rape. If people are stealing, remove their need or desire to steal rather than locking them up and putting them in a position where everyone they know is a criminal. It's a cycle that's hard to break and we should be more careful about who we thoughtlessly throw in jail.
You are correct. What they're stealing matters too. I'd absolutely look the other way for someone stealing food from a business. But yanking someone's phone out of their hand, literally stealing from your neighbors is wild.
But yes, I shouldn't have used rape as an example, it was only to show some crimes are exactly the opposite of accidental.
Compare - if you will - the effort and danger of the women herself, hanging onto the offender on a moving motorbike, falling multiple times, being dragged underneath his feet, not letting go, to the big man in the white t-shirt arriving late and kicking the offender as he's pinned down.
She took a few shots to the face too. One with the phone, and another with an elbow. May have slipped under the elbow though.
Fuck yes! What a POS
stomp that mf out til he has a fucking epiphany
this is what actual anarchy looks like
Everyday people coming to the aide of a fellow human who is fighting to stop herself being victimized is anarchy? Yeah, pretty much. Doesn't seem like a bad thing, though. If we all took that level of responsibility, you wouldn't need much of a governmental force.
I think everything you just said with many words, is what he said with few words. You're both in agreement.
nuf said
I read it as meaning the exact opposite (as in, the crime part is what anarchy looks like) so they might want to reconsider the wording.
Anarchy is nice
I wish cops were reliable
I wish they weren't corrupt, rapists, murderers, and recently, kidnappers.
Recently?
Abolish police. Form well-regulated militias instead. Most of the "police" don't even live in the neighborhoods they enforce the laws in.
not gonna happen
Nah, anarchy probably wouldn't have cops to come pick him up at the end. They'd just beat him some more until they felt justified enough cause what else ya gonna do?
Anarchy would shun them from social systems until they made appropriate reperations. They might be jailed, they might be exiled, they might just be cut off from all but basic food/services/etc.
There are law enforcement answers in anarchist societies that aren't "have cops."
Please elaborate on how you would deal with professional violent criminals in an anarchist manner.
Sure. You try to head off the behavior before it gets there by ensuring basic needs are met for all and through social tools like shunning and group dynamics.
Your scenario springs up whole clothe without the above, so I would offer the following for it : Jail, exile, death. The order depends on the people involved in the society they created.
Being an anarchist doesn't mean you lack the current tools we use, it means you dont have to use them, or at least you dont have to reach for them first.
You didn't answer who exactly would jail a guy with a gun who's willing to use it and knows how to do it.
Id be glad to. Just tell me the name of everyone in the society, their general roles in different social situations, their agreed on laws and rules, and their specific stance on violence and how they want to respond to it.
Once you do, I can answer your very specific questions about a hypothetical community that doesnt currently exist and hasent been defined by any of the people in it.
