If my dislike of vigilante methods is "misguided" then I am very, very
glad to be misguided.

And I am very sad to learn that those who are, what is the opposite of
"misguided"?  "guided"? .. That those who are "guided" apparently
believe that everyone not waving their flag is a presumptive criminal
who deserves no protection or rights.

Why do you shy from a procedure in which those who accuse would be
required to identify themselves, to be required to state their accusal,
and be required to provide at least a modicum of proof to support that
accusal?

Why do you shy from a principle which has been one of the foundation
stones of western concepts of justice for centuries?
