With this set up it's nearly impossible for Nick to abide by the laws he swore to uphold because he feels compelled to act when he sees others do wrong that the existing justice system is without the means to carry out justice accordingly. In a world where there aren't supernatural being but the actually are but live in the shadows or hidden among the general population the system is lacking so this kind of vigilantism will continue in its place.
The trouble is what you wrote is not so. Renard was asked point blank by Nick or Hank or Wu what percentage of crime was wesen related , and he replied nearly all of it.
Nick and supposedly Hank and Wu were able to solve crimes and put wesen away before they ever knew of Grimms and wesen.
So Nick and crew were making a very obvious choice. Operating outside of the legal system should have been the exception rather than the rule and only done (if at all) after very careful consideration.
Honestly I think the series would have been more interesting, if once a criminal was reveled to be wesen that the story became one of hoe to get the perp to trip up so they could convict under the existing law.
Oxford commas are so totally rad!.
