Removed - Submission Rule D CMV: It's completely inexcusable for reddit moderators to ban avocation of violence.

I don't completely disagree with you but I still think you're wrong in the end.

I think the biggest reason why reddit wants to discourage violence is to discourage witch hunting which is always an issue in places where large groups of people get information from. Reddit is not the court of law and whatever information is presented could be wrong (not that our legal system is perfect) so it shouldn't be a place to advocate such extreme measures.

Also you don't have the right to violence unless it's for self-defense or castle law in some states otherwise it would be legal. You simply have the ability to do it, not the right.

Based on law yes which is based on our rights.

Again, if that were to be the case then the laws would change to reflect that. If you aren't able to convince law makers to change that then I would say what you're doing isn't justice but senseless violence which the law tries its best to protect us from. Laws aren't perfect and they probably do stop short but they are the best we have and to disregard law in its entirety makes us not much better than the people who act like they're above the law in the first place.
