Just to settle things so you children can stop your bickering, according
to Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary (C) 1976 page 1305 the word
"vigilantism n: the summary action resorted to by vigilantes" does indeed
exist. The "word" vigilanteeism does not - at least in this dictionary.

Will there be an apology here I suppose?
