I'm not morally superior, but I do feel uncomfortable with an eye for an eye. I don't generally join in discussions about how to handle paedophiles because if there was an easy answer I think we would already be aware of it.
I don't think this man is misunderstood, or that his case is heartbreaking, but I don't think he deserves to be murdered. His desires lead him to actions which damage other people - this is the case with many criminals. The danger with vigilantism in my mind is the potential for people to believe they are above the law.
Perhaps I would feel differently if I had children.
