I truly dread having to say this.
If justified defense of self or others from violent repeat offenders becomes a crime, then it's time for vigilantism to graduate to the next step.
Vigilantes deal with the symptoms, but at some point, the disease must be addressed. Those who preclude any possibility of treating the disease peaceably with the threat of deadly force invariably make themselves just and moral targets of the same.
