Its more of a position that Reddit will more than likely be wrong. Truth be told, the last thing someone needs is an army of highly emotional armchair sleuths who are ready to take the law into the their own hands. This isn't about "sacrificing catching the bad guy", it's about giving proper due process. Look how wrong Reddit was about the boston bombers. Imagine if the guy they found was ultimately alive and someone found him and paraded him through the streets. Its no better than mob mentality. Truth be told, I can't really understand how people can not support Reddit's position. The "pseudo-anonymity" leads people to believe that somehow these Reddit sleuths can be trusted. Look at this way, if your local town to decided to carry pitchforks and hunt this man in the streets, clearly something is wrong and democracy has failed. I for one would not like to go back to burning and hangings.
