I've always wanted to do it the other way, right? You sue me because you don't like what I do, and I want to make you find out right back. IDC for or about the rules; just try to work around enforcement. Courts aren't how I settle things, right? I don't go there. So I'd be looking for justice elsewhere, and I'd, to the extent that I can, insist that things are settled the old fashion way inasmuch as they involve me.
See, the issue is, these people have kids to take care of. Of course, what you're talking about is Very Bad in its own right and all that (I am an EU subject), but what will happen to this kidnapped kid if they spend the rest of their lives in jail?
This is why it's only when people have nothing to lose that they act in such Very Bad ways. They're quite good at making sure that people never have nothing to lose, just very little.
It's a collective action problem. But of course, if you can rouse the collective, there is no need for the Very Bad actions, because you can handle such misconduct in ways that are regarded as legitimate.
I'd work really hard to settle that another way. Not necessarily violence because you could pursue things socially. You may in fact end up in a situation where what is right is not the same as what is practical. I have empathy for someone in that situation, and I'd not judge them or propose a one-size-fits-all solution.
I'll take that as a compliment, but extralegal methods of settling one's differences don't always involve violence or threat of violence. Legal methods always involve the threat of violence (that's what government is). I prefer negotiation. If you can even get anywhere. Social pressure is another nonviolent tool that can be used with people who are reticent to negotiate.
No point in saying it. You do what you have to.

As physically close to the line as you can go without crossing it.
