We have more options than mob justice. Who told you that, that was our only option? Once you resort to mib justice, their verdicts can't just be "taken back". I'll give you a link to Emmett Till, and that's what mob justice brings.

I live in the US. Courts in the US are often useless. If you have a high profile case you might get justice but usually nothing happens.

I'm definitely aware of what can happen. I don't know how often it does. But if you restrict yourself to forcing justice only when you aren't acting on a hunch you're probably doing the best for yourself you can, because the alternative is usually nothing.

I live in the US as well and you're arguing for a medieval form of justice. You think we should go back to conviction on a "hunch" and feelings. Have we fallen so far that I have to argue for the merits of a justice system based on evidence in a technical forum? Education and critical thought should be inextricably linked.

No, you didn't understand what I wrote. If you are sure you're not operating on a hunch, which is certainly possible, then just shrugging your shoulders when the court does nothing is insane. If you have proof that a court refuses to listen to then it is your moral imperative to act on it if you can do so.
