What's with the overly homicidal Dawnguard?

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but I ran into something pretty weird and a tad disturbing earlier while playing Skyrim. I joined the vampires in Dawnguard's main quest, so of course they've been regularly sending people after me. I was riding through the Reach on my way to Markarth when I see one of the three revelers that occasionally spawn run past me. I get off my horse and pull out my sword and find three Dawnguard Vampire Hunters (not even regular Dawnguard members, the one had a Writ of Dawn authorizing my execution on him) mercilessly beating the hell out of these revelers. One got away, but the other two were dead before the Dawnguard even bothered to look in my direction.

I know they're supposed to be "well-intentioned extremists," especially Isran, but what the hell? They go looking for me to hunt me down and decide to bludgeon a bunch of simple revelers until I show up? My character is a bit of a sociopath, but I don't go out of my way just to beat up drunk people for giggles and grins. Are they supposed to be that openly hostile, or did I hit a glitch or something?
