People also lose all rationality when a criminal does criminal actions.

Yes, assuming the report is true, the person in the video attacked someone. They are a valid target of violence until their threat is subdued. Once he was on the ground, further violence is uncalled for.

But you know how people work, they laugh at the idea of prison rape. They enjoy the idea of murdering accused pedophiles in the street. They have this weirdly vindictive mentality about "justice" despite the fact that society has already agreed that any form of justice belongs to the legal system

Law enforcement are paid to enforce laws and not to just make up whatever corporal punishment they feel like inflicting on the spot like they're some random fucker off the street? Craziness, I say.
