Call me old fashioned, but I think a reduction in social and economic
inequality would be a more sensible approach than having a bunch of
vigilantes wandering around looking for people to beat up.

If muggers and pickpockets knew they were going to have the living daylights
beaten out of them - they'd stick a knife in you first rather than just
holding it on you.
