I was first taken aback as well. However the Cajun Navy was hundreds of miles from their home, and apparently were using violence to enforce their moral beliefs on people who wouldn't comply with them (e.g. the nursing home director). Maybe this is pedantic since they were actually out there rescuing people. But when guys start pulling guns out on people who are ostensibly doing nothing illegal -- well that kind of is vigilante justice, even it they're the "good guys." This is an important discussion to have. Hopefully it doesn't wind up hampering citizen disaster response. But there needs to be better ways of coordinating these things. Especially when the politicians who are on TV claiming they have the "the greatest disaster response ever" and brushing over real problems happening on the ground.
