“Justice Delayed Is Justice Denied”

I have suggested that we use “clear and present danger” as a measure of the validity for the reasons we use to commit violence (i.e. to kill). But I realize of course that there are no simple rules for determining when we should or shouldn't kill.
For example; I have also asserted at times that perhaps it would have been best if someone had simply put a bullet in my head at that Denny's restaurant in Coeur d'Alene five years ago (where I was found in the company of a little girl I had kidnapped after murdering her family) instead of putting me under arrest.
You may think that society must determine my guilt before it can justify killing me. But that is exactly the kind of irrational fear based thinking that makes real justice (justified action) impossible.
Despite what our fear motivated system wants you to believe, it is simply not possible to determine rationally what should be done about a dangerous (or tragic) situation out of the immediate context of the situation itself! As soon as you change the context of the situation, you also change the appropriate rational response. And attempting to re-create the circumstances in court in order to determine a rational response is impossible. It can only result in the fabrication of rationalizations (i.e. excuses) for delayed actions.
In other words, by arresting a suspect in order to delay justified action (i.e. justice), we completely destroy any chance of genuinely justified actions (true justice). It does not matter how meticulously preserved the crime scene is at the time of the crime, or how carefully the evidence is weighed in court. No matter how hard you try, you simply cannot just suspend the crime so you can decide what to do about it later. This is a fundamental flaw with the entire justice system. And the system itself is acutely aware of this flaw, so it expends tremendous resources just trying to cover it up, and even more effort futilely trying to fix it. Better and better crime scene preservation and evidence analysis only results in more money being spent while justice is delayed and perverted further and further.
Attempting to invoke any kind of social justice by delaying action is clearly never going to be accomplished. The outcome can only be less and less justice the further we move the rationalizing process away from the circumstances being rationalized. It is a sand trap with only one solution: don't step in it!
They say “justice delayed is justice denied”. I wonder if they realize how true that is. As for taking justice into our own hands, perhaps there is no place else where it belongs!
