Sure, we've seen how they're ineffective, but the average citizen would be more inclined to just let the police deal with it than to go out and make a private group of armed citizens just to 'protect Vale from the White Fang'. Who are mooks for the most part anyway since they're recruited straight off the streets, so the police would have no trouble dealing with an average White Fang member.

It's only the higher class members who have actual combat training that would be a problem, in which case no amount of militia formed from a group of civilians is going to do anything but get themselves killed. The way I see it there is a lot of confusion and miss trust in Vale. And like somebody used to know said it is more believable that a group of previous hunters and Huntress would try to get the people to stand up for themselves. This group would be more to fight mafias and Grimm with the possibility and hope reclaiming Beacon at some point. It is because of the fall of bacon that this group was made to specifically fight organizations that are a threat to  citizens of Remnant.
