I'm sure that you're fully aware of the fact that you would last an hour if the citizens where to go vigilante in the street, right? I expect you're not the most loved person in the 'hoods, and if the citizens raise up arms against the thugs, the thugs are going to raise up twice as many arms against the citizens.
Also, look around you. Look at the people who live, work and play in your neighborhood. Do you think that even 50% of those people are in any way shape or form capable of being honorable and just vigilantes?? If you're going to give the power of life and death to the citizens, they must be honorable and just people, and that is a trait that is hard to find these days.
