Extra Judicial killings here in our city seems to be normal for quite a decade because most of the victims are police characters which has involved in such many crimes specifically Drugs and Robbery. What do you think about such extra judicial killings? are in favor with it?

Luckily, that isn't something that really happens in my country (with exception of Texas, what they do is their business), but the USA doesn't really have that kind of problem. The only time I think that extra judicial killings are justified is in the case of a serial killer. That is the only time I would condone something like that.

I know how you feel about that. The OJ Simpson trial here is LA was a prime example of that. He got off because of all of the money he had.

I think that's one of the very controversial case before in your country, right? As I have know OJ Simpson is acquitted from that case? correct me if i'm wrong...Anyways, I really do hope that all this things happening will served as wake up call for those proper authorities to do their job accordingly...

Extra-judicial killings, or vigilantism is definition by itself is a crime.
When you have a group of armed men unaccountable to no one and acting like judge, jury and executioner at same time, you have a formula for absolute power - and absolute power corrupts.

No matter how inefficient our justice system is we still have to believe in it. Our laws prevent our country from anarchy.

that's because of corruption, that has caused it and also poverty that others tend to take justice on their own hands. laws are there but it's too slow and a bit tiring for some who spends more than they should be.

yes, you're right! people are being not satisfied with the kind of justice system but with the extra judicial killings there is no other laws or whatsoever being applied to those criminals but to kill them instantly.
As the crime goes in our city, criminals are not afraid because they all know that they can get an attorney to protect them and acknowledge there human rights. But with extra judicial there is none court proceedings or any case.

yeah... That's true... Not even they are involved in such crime as you had mentioned but they are active in corruption as well which let them gain much money and the citizens been discrimination and suffering from their attitudes. So, we are losing the fairness and security and who going to protect the victims? who going to think about them? In my opinion, please do the right choice while making your decision in election. Go through all the parties in election and try to make your right decision before you regret. This is the better way to overcome this kind of political ills.
