Nah, anarchy probably wouldn’t have cops to come pick him up at the end. They’d just beat him some more until they felt justified enough cause what else ya gonna do?

Anarchy would shun them from social systems until they made appropriate reperations. They might be jailed, they may be exiled, they might just be cut off from all but basic food/services/etc.
There are law enforcement answers in anarchist societies that are “have cops.”

Please elaborate on how you would deal with professional violent criminals in an anarchist manner.
rainwall@piefed.social 13 hours ago
Sure. You try to head off the behavior before it gets there by ensuring baisic needs are met for all and through social tools like shunning.
Youre scenario springa up whole clothe without yhe above, so i would offer the following for it : Jail, exile, death. The order depends on the people involved in the society they created.
Being an anarchist doesn’t mean you lack the current tools we use, it means you dont have to use them, or at least you dont have reach for them first.

I wish cops were reliable

I wish they weren’t corrupt, rapists, murderers, and recently, kidnappers.

Recently?

Abolish police. Form well-regulated militias instead. Most of the “police” don’t even live in the neighborhoods they enforce the laws in.

Everyday people coming to the aide of a fellow human who is fighting to stop herself being victimized is anarchy? Yeah, pretty much. Doesn’t seem like a bad thing, though. If we all took that level of responsibility, you wouldn’t need much of a governmental force.

I think everything you just said with many words, is what he said with few words. You’re both in agreement.

I read it as meaning the exact opposite (as in, the crime part is what anarchy looks like) so they might want to reconsider the wording.
