I think an outlook on the future is also necessary. A mass murderer that is not repenting will likely murder again. A vigilante without just cause will likely not. You are saving all the future lives.

    The problem with "just cause" is that it's flexible af. What stop vigilante from moving the goalpost into infinity and beyound? When does "just" degrade from some grand perception based on societal needs into subjective, personal reasons?

    Best case scenario, surrender yourself to community after the deed. Thus, the new murderer got instantly taken down without creating another. But that requires sacrifice/martyrdom.
