I feel an obligation to dispel some ideas that seem to have cropped up recently about the nature of vigilantes. I can't speak for the other members of this strange fraternity I find myself a part of. We don't know each other. But I can speak for myself, and I will.
Children should be children. They should not be hunting down murderers and stopping crimes. They should have childhoods, since that is the point, is it not? We kill the people who would keep those children from their lives, who would take happiness and opportunity from them. Whether you believe in killing men and women who destroy the lives of children like that, or whether you believe they should be properly tried in our broken justice system, children need to be left out of the equation.
You do not need to 'keep your children safe' from us. We're not the ones you should be worrying about. And if someone is pushing this supposed killer child to do what she is doing, he can consider himself a wanted man.
