Two words.

because that's not the dwarven way. Could you make more statues of Urist instead of an impossibly large one chiseled out of the mountain? Sure, you could. If you want to be called a ninny elf by all your friends.

Curiously the hammerer is a very aggressive dwarf.

If you have the dwarven injustice system disabled the hammerer is actually very useful. You could, say, drop the goblins 3-4 levels into the hammerer's room. That fall will be enough to injure or cripple them, and then let the hammerer finish them off. That would train up the hammerer, and would put him to work hammering the actual enemies of the fortress!  :D

Alternatively, you can also drop the goblins into your barracks, or into a pit of war dogs.

Even without jails, he still beats dwarves.

There's really no way to disable the justice system other than crippling all the guards and hammerers.

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.

Actually, if you never assign a Captain of the Guard or any Fortress Guards, nobody will ever be punished.  This annoys the nobles a bit, but who cares about them anyway (slightly more important ones like the Mayor can be kept happy with lots of other nice things).
