 I understand your point, but animals attack because they are afraid of their
 young ones or their territory ... they do not attack because they want to
provoke or cause harm as the result.

 Here is my distorted perspective:

Think of these angry people as wild animals. They are psychologically
incapable of socialized human rational thoughts. Even if the law
enforcement and judical agencies were to apply legal consequences for
their actions, they would not understand the relationship between their
behavoir and the pain. All they would remember is that someone else
caused them pain. At best, we can hope that some of them would weakly
connect their behavoir with the painful consequences. This might
prevent them from repeating the behavoir in the future. In the worst
case, they become even angrier and attack again. We have a lot of
people (wild animals) in our society that can not make that connection
(re. repeat offenders).
