Civilization is a thin veneer indeed, I completely agree, and thats why the rule of law and justice system are so important, without it everyone (even if an initial victor) is the loser. Perfect it ain't, but if you'd like everything (well most things) settled how the "gangs" do it, and according to a similar outlook . . . . .
If you want to see how it works study a few Careless/Dangerous driving cases, the kid on the footpath is one scenario, but what about the poor bugger who isn't quick enough to avoid hitting a woman stepping out from behind a car on a dark rainy night in a 100 km/h area . . . you want a lynch mob deciding if its your freedom on the line??
