I think that you mean the previous sentence, not the start of the sentence I quoted. If you actually read what I wrote, you'd see I quoted your

What bothers me is the general lack of concern for law I occasionally see on this forum (not from you in this case) - some here would like to forget the law and issue summary justice without a trial.
THAT is against the Constitution. One cannot have it both ways, insisting that the 2nd Ammendment
MUST be preserved, then just toss out the 5th Ammendment because one doesn't want it to apply in an emotional case. That is what the
liberals do, not us constitutionalists.
Hey, IMO if the guy is guilty he should pay as much as the law allows. But vigilante justice is no better than no justice at all. Remember the movie
The Ox-Bow Incident? That behavior is a slap in the face of the Constitution, and tragic too. Remember too that what is reported in a newspaper is seldom what is submitted as evidence in court.....
