      The point is that unjustly accused people have the right to violent uphold their rights against persecution. If you accept false accusations as an eventuality, you accept violent retribution as well.

        Feel free to explain why correctly accused people wouldn’t do the same thing.

        Also feel free to explain how due process only applies to other people because you’re allowed to be violent if the law even thinks of responding to an accusation, false or otherwise, like it would for any other crime.

          It applies differently because reasonable people presume innocence and will therefore support those accised without evidence.
