So yeah, with Vimes being a lawman of course he would be more uptight than Viper, and also Vimes isn't the sort of person who has a whole lot of faith in gods. Frankly, if he could he'd probably try to arrest them for "behaviour likely to cause a breach of the peace" or something. In fact, he a fiar bit of his behaviour could be summed up with this quote

" "I have noted before that you have a definite anti-authoritarian streak, Commander."

"Sir?"

"You seem to have retained this even though you  are  Authority." "Sir?" "That's practically Zen."

Ah another thing, Vimes isn't really a racist, but only because he's so cynical that he thinks almost everyone is capable of being mean and small-minded. Don't know if you know what tv trops is, but feel free to look at their character page for him, it should give you a better idea of what he's like. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/DiscworldCityWatch
