Meaning hunting down killers like in death sentence. I don't think I could, I don't think I could ever kill somebody, plus I am a wimp at fighting:(

Probably not, unless if they did something really screwed up to me.

In certain situations, like the collapse of law enforcement in my area.

That's more like a hitman or a bounty hunter, I don't think vigalantes get paid

I am a bounty hunter, fun job really fun job, but I guess it's pretty close to a vigilante.

I voted yes, although I'm not entirely sure. My reason is that a read a book a few years ago in which a police officer's daughter, who was less than 10 years old, was raped and murdered. During his trial the criminal gets let go on a technicality. I can't say for certain what I would do if I was ever unfortunate enough to be in that situation.

No. I have never agreed with the concept of vigilante justice. I'd be a hypocrite if I participated in it myself.

Doesn't change the fact that he was a vigalante, and he had the power to kill more people.

And when did I say Kira was cooler than L?

No, but for an entirely different reason. I respect society and the benefits that society gives me, and those benefits are only possible if there is order. Even more important than people getting their just desserts is the need for the rules of society to be enforced. Because once those rules break down, EVERYTHING breaks down, and civilization starts to look like something out of The Road Warrior.

Having said that, maintaining such order requires adherence to the law. Given that I'm not willing to undermine the order which makes life pleasant for me, I can't very well be comfortable with committing acts of vigilantism that undermine that order.
