We aren't governed by mob justice. We have laws, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with their being enforced, and it's the tyranny of the majority to claim that they can be selectively unenforced if the majority decrees.
That's how genocides historically begin. The majority can not decide a moratorium on investigating murders in the US. They can not decide laws are to be unenforced. They can not decide the executive branch should not exist.
The constitution both enshrines our rights and limits government, but also by necessity empowers it.

Blue cities try for mob rule, the solution isn't too let them have it, but to draw the line because we aren't about that.
