I see that guy take a swipe at another with a machete last night, taking off two fingers, then he took a swing at another. I don't know what the current laws are regarding that, I doubt they're supportive of that behaviour - in which case 'regulated society' doesn't really register with him - in which case he needs a good talking to IMHO.

its all well and good having laws...they are good.... but worse than useless if they are not being enforced...and in many cases enforced hard.
thats not a swipe at the hog tied thin blue line....the whole judical system has been getting its teeth pulled one by one for many years now.
PERSONALLY I would like to see the return of corporal punishment...the thought of being beaten with cane or tied up in stocks in main street might just make some stop and decide nope not doing that.... and if did decide to do it...would actually give the powers that be ,a tool they can use thats not a wet bus ticket.
when a kid punches another at school and is expelled because of it........its because the school board has no other tools in the tool box any more..and the results of it are sad to watch.six of the best outside the principals office and get back to class laddie,dont do it again...worked for many many years for good reason.it still would work.
our entire judicial system is suffering from same ,just by differing degrees.
