Default India's Gulabi Gang: Vigilantism Justified?

I stumbled upon this article using...you guessed it, Stumble Upon. Unfortunately I am spending way too much time online, but that is material for a different forum

India's pink posse hunts down bad guys | FP Passport

Check it out...I am generally a pacifist and frown upon "taking law into your own hands" since it has a tendency of being emotionally charged and getting out of control. However, for those who have been abandoned and even abused by the powers that be, I realize that sometimes it seems as if this is the only choice. The feminist side of me says "hell yea" to this group of women that tackle domestic abuse and political injustice on their own terms. If only I could find a pink sari, those parking meters in downtown Raleigh might have a few things coming...naw, just kidding

But what do YOU think?
