I have to agree, that inciting another layer of violence doesn't make much sense. In this case the system seems to have worked pretty well, some people broke the law and were arrested. Crime and violence is down compared to 30 years ago by pretty much any measure. In fact compared to any time in history really. I've been a victim of group violence in Milsons Point Park of all places, but I still am not going to buy into the idea that the world is a more violent place than it used to be, or that individuals should set themselves up as Judge and Jury. What happened was appalling, but they were apprehended in the end.
Don't get sucked in by the media portraying 'the kids today', there are always some a**holes around, but way less than when I was a kid.
Have a listen to the TED talk I posted back a few pages, it is quite enlightening.
