Oh calm down. Maybe I'm not getting across what I mean to say but you don't have to go all apoplectic about it.

No I don't.

There were courts before capitalism and I dare say there will be afterward. I'll let someone else say what I'm trying to get across. What I mean is what Angela Davis talks about, i.e. a justice system based on reparation and reconciliation rather than retribution and vengeance.
This is damned well something we should be thinking about.

Are you calling me a libertarian police supporter? If so, then piss off. If not, what the hell are you saying?
