Then neither do I condemn you, go now and sin no more John 8:7”.
Jungle justice is the concept and act of disregarding the rule of law and taking matters into one's hands; more clearly put, it is the act of handing suspected criminals over to the hands and mercy of an angry mob.
Sometime you may feel like a thief caught stealing and is being beaten by a mob is okay since he is a thief, but you got to understand that two wrong doesn't make a right. The mob are as guilty or even more as the thief.
You shouldn't not take law into your hands no matter what. Jesus told the mob that wanted to stone to death a woman caught in adultery 'those without sin should be the one to stone her ' (John 8:1-7)
Sometimes ago in the city of Port Harcourt, Nigeria, 4 university students were wrongfully killed by a mob action who thought they were robbers. Some days ago, a manager of an airline was mercilessly beaten by the passengers who felt the airline has taken them for a right (as if the manager is the one calling the shot).
Envisage a society where every citizen took the law into their own hands and arbitrarily used violence against each other. Society would rapidly disintegrate into lawlessness since the laws are there just for decoration. A sound legal system is critical to maintaining stability and progress.
Undisciplined people instinctively react, while others thoughtfully respond. Individuals must take responsibility by responding rather than indiscriminately resorting to knee-jerk reactions. When we are offended, our natural inclination is to fight back, to get even. It goes without saying that this response, though entirely human, is almost always a mistake. Mindless revenge is the sign of a savage nature. Self-control is a sign of intelligence. It is a case of brains verses brawn. Intelligent people use their brain power; primitive people resort to physical power.
Radical Islamic extremists use violence and the sword instead of intellect, because they lack an intellectual approach. Stop thinking like the brainless ISIS(terrorists), who seek sadistic pleasure and a warped sense of justice from beating, humiliating and torturing people. Imagine you being dealt with by an angry mob, will you want that? Of course not.
#SayNoTo #JungleJustice. Let the law takes its course. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty by a competent court of law.
The #SayNoTo Series continue tomorrow.
Good Morning and have a great day
