The problem is, as I'm SURE you are aware, the term, "vigilante," does NOT connote one from the Vigilance Committee, picking up what a failed government has dropped. It connotes one who is quick to hang or shoot anyone even LOOKING guilty of something, and not necessarily the crime for which someone is being sought. This is hardly the case with the MMP, as you should be aware. They are, indeed, picking up what a faile goernment has dropped, but they are quick to expel or disavow any one whose activity can be construed as "vigilanteism," as it's popularly seen. Thus, use of that term by Mr. Bush was wildly inappropriate and your comment was disingenuous at best and possibly duplicitous.
As I've said before:
Calling the Minuteman Project volunteers "vigilantes" just because they carry handguns is like calling hikers and campers "arsonists" just because they carry matches.
