So far, nobody has proposed "taking the law into his own hands."

If everybody obeyed the laws about keeping their dogs out of other
people's yards, then we'd have a society where no property owner was
considering killing somebody elses dog because it was destroying his
property.

If everybody obeyed the laws about not making a large wake, and/or very
loud engine noise, where it is dangerous & destructive to do so, then
far fewer people would be be convinced that motorboaters are obnoxious
oblivious jerks.

It's really very simple Dave. Keep reading it over and over, maybe
you'll "get" it.
