Saying something "has its place" to the point where you defend it implies the place is something that actually happens. If your hypothetical isn't realistic (or a scenario where your proposed actions don't just make things worse isn't realistic) then you have no substantial argument.

Guy attempts to SA loved one. You catch him in the act, but he flees the scene. There is no proof, but you literally SAW him do it. You, loved one, and attempted rapist all know it happened. Loved one is traumatized, and you have nothing to hold up in court against the scum bag.

You see him randomly in an isolated area 10 days later. Nobody else is around. You fuck him up, BADLY.

That is street justice, and its 100% justified.

Is this a real thing that happened, or an extended hypothetical?

From the perspective of anyone else, you brutally assaulted someone with an unproven accusation. Do you think the jury should just take your word for it and let you off, yes or no?

Shame you had a case of mistaken identity and just assaulted somebody who was out of town on the night the assault happened and thus couldn't have done it.

Shit like that happens. There's a reason why eye witness testimony isn't considered very good typically.

Its life, so Im sure people have sadly experienced something like this. But the point here is to demonstrate that there are situations in which taking matters into your own hands would be 100% justified, especially when theres either no proof that would hold up in court or the person is found not guilty (despite it being factual that hes guilty, and you knowing that to be the case).

For fucks sake.

Its not about how total strangers perceive the situation in a subsequent court case that may or may not happen. What were discussing is philosophical. You KNOW the guy assaulted your loved one because you were literally there, but you dont have proof. Nothing will hold in court, and youre aware of this. So you take matters into your own hands.

In such a scenario (and similar situations), street justice is 100% justified.

Dude, at best you can write this up into a detailed spec script for a right wing production company to make a white Christian fear movie out of starring Kevin Sorbo or Dean Cain.

So basically you dont even know whats going on but just wanted to chime in with out-of-place snark. Got it.

And still refusing to answer. I can respond to either a yes or no answer about whether the jury would be justified in convicting you, but I'm not continuing this if you keep refusing to answer because vague appeals to emotion are the only defense you have for your argument.

What youre asking is completely irrelevant to the philosophical argument of whether or not street justice has its place. I gave you a scenario in which a person taking justice into their own hands would be 100% reasonable; thats all I sought to demonstrate, and I did. Street justice has its place.

Your argument can't stand up to any scrutiny and you are very clearly aware of that since you label anything that points out problems with it as "irrelevant", I'm finished with this.

My argument stands up to all scrutiny. Like, what even is your point here? Its like youre just trying to win on whatever technicality you can.

If I get busted for roughing up a rapist that I cant prove is guilty in court, its reasonable for the jury to side against me because their job is to be fair and impartial. Based on their knowledge (or lack thereof), it makes sense for them to defend the rapist (unless he confessed). Based on MY knowledge, it makes sense for me to fuck up the rapist.

Both things can true.

by "taking care of our own" they mean persecuting or straight up executing anyone who isn't a straight white christian republican gun nut

Do small towns not have police, or something?

How odd, I can sub out "small town" for "sundown town" and the song is exactly the same.

Subbing in "Texas" also works

Yeah, in a small town, the police would hide it and harass the ever loving shit out of you for trying to expose it.

Sounds like something a CEman trying to act tough would say under different context

Why is this always the first assumption? This place cant be such a hive-mind that anything going against popular opinion is instantly assumed to be somebodys alt. Kinda creepy lol

Well, now that you all have spent an entire page of the topic feeding him, do you feel like you've accomplished anything?

The need to dogpile over a dumb country song doing exactly what it was intended to do. Get one side to nod their heads and the other to fight about it. If you think hes a troll, why keep going at it?

People in here acting like they know anything other than what their computer screen looks like. You guys dont even interact with people with your own beliefs. Much alone people who think differently than you.
The song is a bit yee haw for my taste but theres plenty of people in small towns who are actually loyal to their circle and Im not talking about just color. Loyal to the community and to what they want to stand up for.

and what thoughts are those, exactly? are they the mythical "states rights", "muh heritage and guns" or other "non-nazi" beliefs republicans supposedly have but nobody can say on this board?

Beveren_Rabbit posted...

he's not wrong though. people that act like that only do so because California allows it. they try bipping in any other town they would get stomped.

You make some of the dumbest fucking posts on this board

But...I like Jason Aldean.

Although I did go to that video and dared everyone there to start a fight with me.

It's only noteworthy when a country singer isn't writing conservative fantasy fiction.

This is their bread and butter.

Modern country is trash, and Jason Andean has always sucked. Granted, I havent listened to country since I got old enough to decide I didnt have to listen to what my parents did, but I still hear it every now and then when my mother listens to old country and my brother listens to new country, and new country sucks.

It's Pure Flicks, right? That David White guy from the looks of it.

Makes perfect sense actually, make an alternate version of popular movies, even if the whole point of the original is a self insert revenge fantasy where the "hero" effortlessly kills dozens.

Well Luke Bryan sang that who you love isn't something you should ever be ashamed of. Does he suck?

Being progressive doesn't excuse you from making shit music.

We live in a society (small town society)

I miss when country songs were about a guy shooting a man in Reno just to watch him die.

Sublime singing about putting a cap in Sancho's ass does make me question what prompted that.

Yeah, good ole boys aren't rescuing old ladies from car jackers. Change those lyrics to be about making minorities disappear and tail gating in McDonald's parking lots.

I've lived in small town America my whole life. If I didn't have family here, I'd be long gone, even if I had to start from scratch. Starting from scratch anywhere else would be better than being established but miserable in this hellhole.

I know some people want others to think that life is like the Waltons down here, but it's not that at all in most places. For one thing, the Waltons were friends with their black neighbors, and they valued education instead of badmouthing and gaslighting about it. When WW2 came around, their boys signed up to fight the nazis instead of joining them like so many so-called patriots would do these days, like how they proudly side with the values of Vladimir Putin vs. the values of American democracy.

Jason Aldean is a notable member of the hall of shitty radio country, but he ain't a boomer. Dude is squarely in gen x.

This post and the rash of Death Wish-esque revenge movies over the past decade lead me to believe that there's a subset of men in this country who secretly go to bed every night praying that something terrible happens to their wife and kids, so they can finally have the excuse they've been waiting for to go guns-blazing vigilante on everyone around them.

Eh, we probably get way less revenge movies these days than we did in decades past. The 80s and 90s were full of action movies with revenge-based plots, and the 70s were the age of exploitation films like the aforementioned Death Wish that constantly featured revenge as a driving plot point.

Well, unless someone (usually a drug lord) threatens, kidnaps, or murders a family member of some CIA or Special Forces veteran. Or kills a pet dog or steals a car belonging to a retired hitman.

Sometimes two different men can look similar.

That picture is two different men. So can you say with 100% certainty that you're exacting your "justice" on the actual criminal, and not just someone that looks like him? That's just one of the many reasons why vigilante justice should not be a thing.

Bullshit lmao. I lived in small towns for 28 years and the only reason people claim to be "loyal" to them is because they got stuck working at the local factory or got so strung out on opioids/meth that they just couldn't leave. I've seen first hand the way minority families or gay kids got treated going through those school systems. Who do you think you're fooling exactly?

Sometimes, no matter how skilled a fighter you are in your imagination, the bad guy will just give you a good kicking for your troubles.

They're a bad guy, you see. And you're a messageboard poster having unhealthy violent fantasies.

Youre adding a level of uncertainty to the scenario that isnt meant to be there. By the same logic, the judge/jury could make a similarly inaccurate assessment and send the wrong guy to prison.

But thats not the point. The point is that there are situations where street justice makes 100% sense. Thats all.
