So was this just a RIP crew that wanted cash? Cause honestly, society is so far fucked I dont blame vigilantes doing vigilante shit to drug dealers. Especially cartels our government could curtail but dont.

It seems like a small time rip crew of two to take on what appears to be a distribution level crew. The article stated they wanted to steal the drugs and cash.

Almost any centerfire rifle ammo will zip through a common vest like a hot knife through butter.  It takes a special vest to stop center fire rifle ammo.   Even the old time 30-30 will zip through a standard vest.

Level 3 vest, cartel with rifles, you lose.  Given how stupid the public and reporters are, more likely it was an airsoft tac vest and probably didn't even have plates, or maybe discarded 2nd chance style soft armor that doesn't do squat.

If they were vigilantes they would have killed those members, torched the drugs and money, not taken them. At least IMO.
