    Accepting the outcome of the legal system is the basis for a liveable society. If everyone just does their own vigilante justice bullshit in their head, then we can just abolish the entire system of law.

      Accepting the outcome of the legal system with regards to the monopoly on force is the basis for a livable society. Personal moral judgements are not suspended by the existence of a legal system; only the violence or coercive action that would accompany in a society without an institution with a monopoly on legitimate force.
