What would be the point of a bail justice or similar system if police opposing bail meant that a bail justice could not direct a persons release? You might as well simply institute a system where the police have the sole decision making responsibility on if a person is released or not. While they were right to oppose bail in this instance (And doubtless many more) Police are still just people and make mistakes like everyone else.
Regards taking things into your own hands. Best IMO to leave actions like this to those trained to take them (Police) than to undo the work they are doing by vigilante action. What if the guys swinging baseball bats at him proved to be the pivotal thing that wound him up that last little bit and tipped him over into driving at people rather than driving in circles in Flinders St and yelling at the crowd?
