Eastwood acknowledges that vengeance drives most of his movies. Nothing wrong with that

Dirty Harry was a direct reaction to the movement in the 60s and 70s towards greater protection of criminal's procedural rights. Alot of people saw it as "get out of jail free" on procedural loopholes. Liberals hated the Dirty Harry movies because they played to alot of American's distaste for that. I call it justice when justice has been mugged.
