Talk:Extra-judicial killings
From Justice Definitions Project
While the source for the (now deleted) section on "impact of extra-judicial killings" anyway did not work, I don't think we should anywhere make the claim that extra-judicial killings have ANY positive impacts. There is no research to show that it acts as a detterent, nor any of the other claims made in the section were backed by any emperical or authoritative source. At best, we can claim that detterence etc. are the common justifications given for exttra-judicial killings, but that too needs to be backed by a proper source. In my opinion, better to delete the entire section, as I have done for now.
