For me there are only two honest responses: A) "I can understand that vigilantism of this kind can hurt innocent people is therefore wrong" B)"if needed, the innocent should suffer so that those who I dislike are ruined". The latter position can be dressed up in all kinds of fancy words "bad people must be brought to justice no matter what". Stripped down to its core, however, and barring the exceptional circumstances, I would say that the desire for street-justice is pretty much evil. So far as I can tell, the rationale for position B is full throttled emotion: "I [want to] hurt the people I don't like and I [want to] kill the people I hate. Doing that makes me feel good, so it is good." Needless to say, I stay as far away from those who subscribe to position B, as humanly possible.
