The Christian way is not to allow sin, nor is it to punish sinners by our own hand; it is to put yourself in the path of evil to spare your people it's wrath.
If this seems pacifistic and weak, try simply speaking out publicly against sin when you see it, in front of your friends and family, and see how easy it is, how much courage it requires. Remember that Rome was converted, not by the sword but by the examples of martyrs.
Poster above said put your self in positions to do something if and when that time comes. If that time is on a park bench with a crazed North African, then so be it.
Most of the time life will be boring. And calling out sin to your immediate group is a good start. And harder than it seems.
