Vigilante "justice" is not justice. Whether you're talking about DOSing email scams or shooting abortion doctors or unilaterally toppling dictatorial regimes, failing to follow the rule of law is to join your enemies at their level.

Taking the law into your own hands assumes that you alone know what's right and wrong, and that your judgement is infallible. There are appropriate methods to achieve your goals. To remain within society, you must follow the social methods: those which have the proper procedural oversight and just review.
