Why is there no vigilante violence in the West?

(This is a philosophical question. Just exploring ideas)

Increasing number of people have nothing to lose. Rioting is pointless and dumb and can land you in jail. People publicly writing "bad stuff" on social media are risking jail-time or at least having their lives destroyed.

Why is nobody killing the rapists and murderers? Why is there no secret organization cleaning up the streets? Why are politicians and "public servants" allowed to feel safe?

I think this is a historical anomaly.

Old school communication methods can be used. Organizing can be restricted to small groups where vetting people is much easier. Small groups can inspire others. We are talking about local vigilantism, not taking over countries. It's just one small front in the fight, but an important one that is completely missing.
