I sometimes wonder how people were seriously cucked into thinking you need a state badge to defend yourself and your city.

I'm not le badass, but I have done things considered illegal even though I know 95%+ of people in the neighborhood would support me.

Those movies are fucking great.

>>68092184
they're only great because of Bronson though. he was so good at playing the "guy gets pissed and kills every criminal he can find for 2 hours" character that after death wish that's pretty much the only character he ever played again.
>>

Bronson going full vigilante was inevitable given works like "Mr.Majestyk."
>>
vigilantism is justified if the police can't do shit
if the police themselves tell the media that they are so flooded that they show up hours later after they recieved an urgent call of assault or home invasion or similar crimes then the people has to step up and take their place as the police

it is when I do it

Now I've got an interest in the history of crime and punishment. Police are a relatively new concept, how were things handled way back when?

I understand that, but the amount of shitty info you'd get on this topic in a deathwish thread on /tv/ would be staggering to say the least.
>>
>>68092320
Self defense is not the same as vigilantism
>>
>>68092487
Back in the day authorities would either
- kill you
- enslave you
- beat the shit out of you
- or take your shit

Criminality itself is an invention of early modernity, before that people who committed crimes weren't considered a different 'breed' of people.
>>
>>68092487
Before religion: Stick/sword through the throat
During religion: Whatever your holy book of choice says to do

And police aren't really a new concept. Every society has had peacekeepers, just before you'd get people paying to deal out hot sword justice if someone tried to steal their shit

>>68092751
If you are dissatisfied enough with your current life that you are in for a big change, just enlist as a mercenary in Africa. War is still going on in some parts of the Congo. You'll get to shoot a lot of niggers. Preferably shoot the commies niggers so that you get double satisfaction points.
>>
Reminder that Death Wish 3 is one of the best action movies ever
>>
>>68091494
No. If you even believe it is, you have basically revealed yourself as uncivilized, and should be separated from polite society before you have one bad day and hurt people just because you THINK it's justice.
>>
>>68091494
It's not that delivering the law, lawlessly should be justified, since it isn't right. But that relying on the law and it's servants to uphold it is terribly inefficient.

Honestly I think it's because the studios would be accused of giving people ideas for protecting their property during a real life chimp out.

How many normies do you think know about the roof Koreans, it was hushed up because we can't have Tyrone getting shot by someone protecting their livelihood whilst he is looting a shoe store during the state sanctioned Room to Destroy Festival.
>>
>>68092783
He was implying more than self-defense.
>>
>>68092788
That sounds like pure bullshit. Just what do you consider "modern" exactly? Because that existed 2,000 years ago.

>Police are a relatively new concept, how were things handled way back when?

All the regular peeps would track down wrongdoers whenever shit went down. This was called "the hue and cry" from what I remember. We also had cool superstitious shit like trial by ordeal and trial by combat back in the day. That and wergild where murderers had to pay their victims family money to stop families just wiping each other out.

Just get a ccw or some kind of weapon and stop somebody trying to hurt you. Its that simple
theres literally guys in my city that dressed up like super heros for a few months thinking theyd stop crime. And yes this was after kickass and super came out
>>
>>68092487
there were early forms of police, but they were more mercenaries/neighborhood watch/lynch mobs
>>
>>68093455
those don't ever amount to anything though. For all actual examples of HE DINDU NUFFIN nobody actually cares. The parents get on a soapbox and talk about how sweet he really was, the news stations eat it up but everyone knows the truth

>>68091494
Dunno
but Death Wish 1-3 is essential rape core

For all the retards in this thread

Modern Era = roughly 1850s till about early 1960s.

Post-Modern Era = roughly early 1960s till about early 2000s

And it is not theorized, since the widespread use of the Internet, that we are in the Post Post-Modern Era.

>>
>>68093101
>not manipulating justice

politicians do it because they have the funds but I can do it because it just as easily manipulated on the person to person level

not obviously you can't shoot niggers in their own hood they'll all gang up against you but if you're in a white neighborhood and witness a burglary and kill them and come up with a reason why you're most likely not going to get charged with anything


>>68093290
you can run around and shoot people and feign self defense and get away with it if you do it the right way
