Nobody is disputing that they have science to back them up. However, when someone takes the law into their own hand, it makes things a little more difficult to support them. Just because I have a valid claim against you doesn't give me the right to bypass the law since I think they are ineffective and take a 2X4 to your head. I agree that going by the proper channels does suck at times and it takes a long time but can we allow anyone and everyone to bypass the channels because they think or they have a valid claim? I think not.

When they have gotten away from it permanently and for a while, I'd be willing to listen to them. till then, they are simply another vigilante
