Vigilante - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Sombra Negra or "Black Shadow," a group of vigilantes, mostly retired police officers and military personnel in El Salvador, whose sole duty is to "cleanse" the country of "impure" social elements. However, individuals and groups acting as criminal vigilantes remain. Also of note is the DC comic book character of the 1980s, himself named Vigilante, a district attorney who "took the law into his own hands" in a disguise when the justice system failed to bring the wrongdoers to account. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Vigilante   (545 words)

A-5 Vigilante - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Although the Vigilante served in the attack and recce roles, its design and configuration was believed to be a major influence on one of the world's most famous postwar interceptors: the Soviet MiG-25 'Foxbat' was apparently heavily influenced by the A-5's design. At the time of its introduction, the Vigilante was one of the largest and by far the most complex aircraft to operate from a US Navy aircraft carrier. Despite the Vigilante's useful service, it was expensive and complex to operate, and it was phased out after the end of the Vietnam War. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/A-5_Vigilante   (1214 words)

Vigilante Man With a Vigilante Man in the governor's mansion in Sacramento, the next Minuteman provocation ("tens of thousands of volunteers blockading the Mexican border this fall") may prove to be tragedy not farce. Vigilantes have always been to the American West what the Ku Klux Klan was to the South: vicious and cowardly bigotry organized into a self-righteous mob. The most publicized of today's vigilantes, of course, are the so-called Minutemen who began their armed patrol of the Arizona-Mexico border -- appropriately enough -- on April Fool's Day. www.motherjones.com /news/dailymojo/2005/05/vigilante.html   (1206 words)

Vigilantism and Vigilante Justice Vigilante groups that go after drug dealers would be an example of a mixed type, since they are probably equally concerned about the crime of drug dealing as they are about their children getting hooked on drugs. Vigilante violence is the opposite of revolutionary violence as vigilantism always seeks to restore order or preserve the status quo. The vigilante quest for legitimacy can lead to some unusual allies and bedfellows, but the more rational vigilante groups will avoid extremists and fanatics, and the even more rational groups, such as the well-known Guardian Angels, will have extensive rules of engagement where non-lethal force is used (even though their charter permits deadly force). faculty.ncwc.edu /toconnor/300/300lect10.htm   (2934 words)

The North American A-5/RA-5 Vigilante The Vigilante development program cost about $200 million USD in contemporary dollars, with the pricetag of each aircraft rising to about $10 million USD, and the Navy felt that their other existing strike aircraft, such as the new Grumman Intruder, were more cost-effective for conventional strike missions. The Vigilante was long and sleek, with a relatively small high-mounted swept-back wing, and all-moving slab tailplanes and tailfin. Some Vigilante pilots claimed that the aircraft's reputation for being difficult to land was exaggerated, but did admit that it was unforgiving. www.vectorsite.net /ava5.html   (4377 words)

Vigilante downloads The name "Vigilante" is a trade mark.(Well, at least, it was in 1988) The "™" symbol doesn't appear in the game, because I don't feel comfortable using a ™ that doesn't belong to me.

Allsopp Vigilante Helikite - Reliable Bird Control The Vigilante fully surrounds the balloon (seen on next page) and provides puncture protection when the balloon falls to earth, but is heavier in warm weather and when it rains. The scientifically designed, patented Vigilante Helikite is the first and only bird control system that really works well over a long period of time because birds find it extremely difficult to overcome the innate terror of predatory hawks that Helikites create. The revolutionary Vigilante Helikite allows bird control where none was possible before. www.biconet.com /birds/helikite.html   (273 words)

Vigilante UAV The first Vigilante, based on the 496 model, was started in April 1997 for the Ballistic Missile Development Organization (BMDO) and the Jet Propulsion Lab (JPL) to provide a stable, unmanned platform for an optical camera to monitor antiballistic missile tests. As a result, the Vigilante will be able to supplement the mission of the Navy's jet fighters by providing early reconnaissance and payload capabilities quickly and cheaply. This means that the Vigilante can be transported on and deployed from frigates and other Navy ships which are likely to reach the battlespace before aircraft carriers. www.globalsecurity.org /intell/systems/vigilante.htm   (644 words)

Nigeria: Government responsibility in vigilante violence Armed vigilante groups, commonly known as the "Bakassi Boys" of Abia, Anambra and Imo states have carried out extra-judicial executions, torture, cruel and inhuman treatment of alleged criminals and illegal detentions, with the backing of state governments. This is the case of the OPC in Lagos State and other vigilante groups already operating in some States whose authorities are considering official endorsement. The organization calls on the Federal and State governments to put the respect and protection of human rights at the top of their political agenda, and ensure that no human rights violations or abuses by armed groups are carried out with impunity. www.amnestyusa.org /regions/africa/document.do?id=80256AB9000584F680256C6A0061116F   (811 words)

Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Vigilante Comic books of the early 1940s were rife with costumed vigilantes, upholders of the law without official status. He first assumed the Vigilante persona when he tracked down his father's murderers, wearing a basic "western" outfit with a broad, white hat, and hiding his identity with a bandana. But "the" Vigilante of DC comics remains Greg Sanders, aka The Prairie Troubadour, and that's probably how it'll be for quite some time to come. www.toonopedia.com /vig-1.htm   (695 words)

ZNet Race Vigilante Wedge Both questions in the Arizona poll are phrased in ways that tend to pre-legitimize vigilante actors as either "citizen volunteers" or "Army reservists." Yet responses to the question about the obviously criminal activity of the rest stop vigilante demonstrates that armed confrontation with illegal immigrants in America is capable of producing a significant wedge. One way to determine if a person is acting as vigilante or volunteer is to see if the person is coordinating his or her law enforcement activities with relevant law enforcement agencies. If we consider the media's widespread disregard for the President's framework when he discourages vigilantism along the USA border yet recall their nearly unanimous adoption of his language when he called upon vigilantism in global arms inspection, we get a brand new theory for media bias. www.zmag.org /content/showarticle.cfm?SectionID=30&ItemID=7783   (1239 words)

Another condition is the inability or unwillingness of the govenment or law enforcement to address the problem effectively.
