Vigilantism is virtually always the response to the break down of legitimate law and order. When Muslims are essentially impugn for any act, obviously somebody out there is going to want to make up the difference and take up the club out of a feeling that Muslims are being let off the hook by regular authority.

That is exactly right; vigilantism only happens when the "proper authorities" refuse to do their jobs.
