Not sure if anyone else has mentioned this but one reason to get law
enforcement involved, cynicism aside, is a concern for personal,
particularly physical, retribution.
At one time I spent a bit too much time refuting holocaust deniers, it
got rather one-on-one. They came in various flavors but some were easy
to characterize as neo-nazis, some well known to law enforcement and
the media, etc.
There were times I'd look up and down my (fairly long) driveway
carefully when coming home, in a manner of speaking.
