I’m not sure “vigilante” is such a bad thing.
It’s not supposed to be, anyway. Not as in, “did he deserve killin’?” “Dirty” Harry.
When I think vigilante, I think Charles Bronson. I was talking to my BEST MAN of some 23 years ago this weekend, and he makes this flip comment:
“Running through the F#(#@ng street with an assault weapon shooting people, seems like a pretty clear cut case to me! That kid was out there and up to no good”
I said brother, I would never want you on a jury for me if my life were in the balance. You need to pay attention!
Grace meant it pejoratively. I agree, Kyle is a great American.
