Why is that when the police cant doing anything about it we cant take the law into our own hands?

Question

I got my idienty stolen recently. I was pissed and the police were like well we really cant catch them leaglly. Well my brother is really good with computers and he thinks that he might of tracked down who did it and so he wants to hack into their computer and release a virus that will destroy all of their files and stuff. And the police said that if he did that he could be arrested and thrown in jail. I think that is such bull! Anyone else agree?

Answer 1

I agree but when people take the law into their own hands, it can turn into a really bad situation. I know that it is sometimes hard to have the police tell you that they can't do anything or you have to sit and wait but for the most part, they help out a lot of people.

Answer 2

The law cannot be taken into the hands of people for the administration of justice. File the proper case in court against the policemen who reneged on their duty.
