The correct answer is B) a vigilante is a self-appointed enforcer of the law.

The statement that best describes a vigilante is “a vigilante is a self-appointed enforcer of the law.”

In the times of the old West, there was almost non-sheriff presence in the area to enforce the law. In small towns, people decide to have vigilantes in order to enforce the law by its own hands. Yes, a vigilante was a self-appointed enforcer of the law that took care of his property. The vigilantes used to punish the aggressor with whipping but sometimes they lynched them.
