No, I'm sorry, if a person was bullied for a year, that was the time for "due process" to protect them and society by preventing further harm. Now it is too late.

They caused someone to die by their violent actions, I am fully in favor of violent retaliation here, and as I said not looking to be convinced otherwise.

There are some things our society gets right, and some things it gets wrong. Passivity in the face of violence is a mistake IMO.

It's never too late for justice to be done. Though more of it has to done the later it is left. No one is talking passivity here. Everyone wants something done this time and done sooner next time.

Mob justice is not justice at all.

Edit: english

Yes it is

Anarchy doesn't work.

Anarchy was never mentioned.

That is mob rule. It's not the rule of law.

That is not what mob rule is, and this literally has nothing to do with government

Mob rule is the breakdown of law and order. Which a failing of governance.

You mean like we have now with psychotic and treasonous christofascists trying to destroy freedom while you complain about "law and order"?

You have never existed in the real world, buddy

Freedom doesn't exist without law and order. Mobs lynch wrong people as often as not. It's why the legal system should be above politics. It amazes me America has politically appointed judges. The judiciary should be separate from, and independent of, the government. If the legal system doesn't work, law and order can break down and you get anarchy.
