>> "This is bullshit and dumb advice. If someone steals my bike and I find out who it is, I'm not going to go to his apartment and beat him to death in the middle of the day" It seemed to me he meant if you have an issue with someone go to them and work it out before taking further action. e.g. you hear word someone has a problem with you. Go to them directly and try to resolve the situation. It could be a simple misunderstanding. If you go the authorities straight away you will make an enemy for yourself for sure. I doubt people are stealing each others bicycles in prison.
