no need for courts too.

Wonder what your reaction would be if your dad got slaughtered by them. I suppose you would ask for forgiveness ?

I don't see how that follows from asserting the importance of a trial and a means to appeal. Please explain.

I'm suggesting that you're allowing emotion to override your reason, which is a bad thing. Suggesting that I might do the same thing under certain circumstances says nothing about whether letting your emotions override your reason is a bad thing or not

The judiciary as it stands does so for, among others, that exact reason. You aren't judged by your victim or his family. You're judged by impartial peers who shouldn't let their emotion cloud their judgement.

Many innocent men have been executed or served long sentences even with that in place.

I might as well just turn it around on you and ask "I wonder what your reaction would be if your dad got locked up for life for something he didn't do - because a right to a fair trial isn't universal and he was deemed guilty on mistaken or perjurious evidence"?.

Except that gives them the gratification of being martyrs & going off to receive their 72 raisins.

As opposed to going to prison and being ordered to pick up the soap in the showers.
