Is it my imagination or does the UK seem to have a high number of these vigilante cases?
That's exactly what Steve is saying. They may not have more, it's just that it makes the papers a lot more often.
You know all those phantom unverifiable "unreported sex offenses"? Maybe the same is true about vigilante action against RSO's. They're unreported. But that doesn't mean they don't happen.
Suppose you're an RSO and somebody throws a brick through your window with a threatening note tied to it. The 'hood knows you're an RSO, and life is tough enough already. Are you going to call the police? Risk them telling the crime beat reporter down at the precint about it? Read it on page 1 of the Times the next day? "Vigilantes Throw Brick Through Window of RSO's House at 1234 Main Street". Now the whole city is driving by your house checking it out. Maybe coming back that night with a few bricks of their own?
Better off to keep your mouth shut.
