Attacking a private residence where children may be present is definitely a category that should be characterized as violence by both.

Hear hear.  The left rarely supports vigilantism, even for violent criminals.  But vigilantism is kewl when it's an economic criminal?

It's like poking a hornet's nest and then complaining when you get stung.

One could say the same of any offender in a community.  I'm really missing the part where an economic crime is somehow deserving of vigilantism.  Once you say that bad people deserve whatever an angry victim decides to throw at them, how are you going to put that genie back in the bottle? 

Apparently in France, managers are being held hostage by angry workers.  Sorry, but tell me how that's not kidnapping, and why those workers should be exempt from the usual laws that say that none of us has the right to hold another hostage?  

Again, just vigilantism, and there's nothing noble or laudable about vigilantism.
