Thrice Burgled

By

A burglar breaks into a store in the middle of the night. An altercation ensues and the shopkeeper strikes the burglar with a plank of wood and stabs him five times in the leg.

Should we be permitted to take the law into our own hands when law enforcement is not present?

Well Timed Vandalism

By

In 1894, Czar Alexander III of Russia gave the government strict monopoly of liquor sales, prohibiting private sale of alcohol. A disproportionate number of Jews had run taverns and liquor stores for centuries, and were now left without income and with heavily restricted options. A Jew in the Lithuania region continued to sell alcohol illegally until a fellow Jew vandalized his entire stock. Moments later, an inspector showed up. Finding broken and empty barrels, he neither arrested the storekeeper nor struck him with a crippling fine.
