Well, these days everything is possible.

"Anything goes!"

Ah, yes, the consequence-free world of thought.

On the one hand, if an innocent were killed in such a manner you want a citizen to have such a recourse. On the other, providing such a recourse allowed any idiot citizen a conveinient excuse to use it for their own personal gains and ambitions.

So which was does the modern world lean? Absolute rule of law and the inevitable anarchy of unchecked freedom or a totalitarian approach and its inevitable repression.

Oh, wait, I have an idea - how about a sub-justice system, tasked with identifying frivolous legal action AND with the ability to prosecute those who bring such cases.
