I'm an optimist, but there are a LOT of batshit insane people in the world.
Mmm, hmm. So, all those government-funded departments like law-enforcement and national defense have NEVER defended the just from the unjust?
Violent criminals: when seconds matter, the police are minutes away.
Political & religious extremists: the right to free speech and expression is universal. No matter how batshit crazy or stupid you are.
Which is why the coercive apparatus of the government works on rehabilitating criminals, and failing that, incarcerating them once they are proven to be a danger to others so that they cannot harm others.
