For instance were you to spy a woman being mugged or raped and dived in with fists flying to save the day, unlikely as that may be, I don't think anyone, from your prdinary citizen to the police and city authorities, would condemn your action- quite the opposite and, by definition, that would be a vigilante action.
However were you to make a habit of doing so, and use potentially deadly force (a kosh, knife or gun, for example), you may face condemnation from some quarters- so how far do you think you can go?
