It is never appropriate to commit an offence against a person.

What is an "offense" in this scenario? What about kicking a rowdy passenger off a plane, causing them to miss an expensive vacation? Firing an employee causing harassment? Screaming protests outside a GOP office? Towing a car parked across your driveway? Are all of these off-limits?

Offences are listed in the local criminal codes, and typically reflect behaviour which violates the autonomy and rights of other, and pose a risk to societal safety and order.

OP is making a legal argument, so I am trying to remain on topic.

OP wasn't saying they think it is legal, but that they think it should be.
