ok, this is for all of you with hard-on's for "justice".

If the man in question had just gotten out of prison, then he'd already served his time. You can't keep punishing someone for the same crime. It's like having a friend who bums bowls from you and keeps reminding you of that one time he chipped in for gas money. After awhile, it gets old. You wouldn't keep rewarding people over and over for the same act. Maybe you should, but it wouldn't be "just", would it...

The cops wouldn't get involved because there was no evidence? Then there probably wasn't. Because cops love to roll with authority and if they didn't, its probably because it was just some halfass story from a couple punk kids that they were smart enough to see through as opposed to believing.

A little problem of "innocent until proven guilty"? Apparently that can be ignored if it gets in the way of justice. But then justice is simply mob rule. Hardly worth getting excited over or even upholding. If you want to say that might makes right you may as well just agree to allowing all the pedophiles and perverts loose. I fail to see the distinction.

Thoughts?

Oh, and as for verbal violence. There's an obvious distinction because, simply to start with, it can be ignored as opposed to physical violence. Most distinctly though, my goal is not to create violence, but rather questioning that might lead to your own mental development. Is that violent?
