The legal system abhors vigilantism more than any other crime because no other crime so blatantly threatens the legal system's monopoly on justice. Behavior such as this, a father murdering his child's rapist, strikes every decent individual as perfectly just. It is, however, classified as the greatest evil by the institutions we associate with justice.
This is not because those institutions aspire to loftier and more important goals, though we are repeatedly told such lies. Rather, these institutions behave like every other system in that they seek to cement and expand their power while extinguishing without mercy anyone who threatens to circumvent or diminish that power.
The courts are one of the main pillars of the social contract. We cede our natural rights of vengeance and retribution to the state in exchange for other benefits. The implicit understanding is that the state will do right by us in this capacity or lose its authority. Failing to properly punish criminals represents a massive failure in this agreement as well as a far bigger threat to the authority of the system than any knock-on vigilantism.
Put another way: if you are a judge who sends a father to prison for 13 years for the crime of killing his child's rapist, you should be less worried about the threat such a vigilante poses to your authority and more worried about whether or not his brother knows your address.
As a sidenote, one can notice this pattern in tv. Think back to all the law type shows you've watched over your life. Every single one of them goes along with the idea that you are WRONG to dish out justice yourself and that the cops will come after you. They have been brainwashing the populace for decades into thinking that standing up for yourself is wrong.
This guy should have been pardoned. He did not deserve to spend 13 years in prison.
daughter should get reparations for wrongfully absent father
And the Democrat prosecutor who put this innocent father in prison should get 13 years in prison.
Should be shot in the head
26...for reparations sake.

Not to mention that majority of those in the justice system are pedophiles themselves, or actively protect pedophiles.

The State's monopoly on violence was officially thrown out on 11/4/2020 when they stole the election. Everyone is fair game now
The whole government and system is illegitimate. We just need the white slaves to realize that.
Well said
