Why do people go after the innocent party?

[c=#4C0073]I have never understood why people who are angered by the actions of someone go after the innocent. Such as:
Cheating- Why go after the one they cheat with instead of the spouse?
Police brutality - Why kill random cops instead of the one who committed the offense?
Racism - Why random violence? Why not beat up kkk or whatever members?

If you're angry enough to be violent, why create more victims? Why not go after the guilty?[/c]

That's exactly how I feel. I think it's because only the most irrational of the wronged actually have so little to lose that they can actually go out and commit these acts of "retribution". But I'd like to think that if I ever lost my shit and was committed to do something drastic, I'd at least do something meaningful. Like shoot up a kkk rally or suicide bomb the president elect
