There was an excellent Op-Ed by George Will about 20 years ago regarding the Bernard Goetz shooting of two thugs on the NYC subways. The jist of it was that society makes a pact with the government that they protect us and we won't be vigilantes. When that fails, as in much of Mexico and the police do nothing, the people take back their society.
