How would you respond to a Vigilante? Crime in lots of areas is pretty bad, most of all in big cities like detriot. How would you respond if to people getting sick of it and turning vigilante? Like a Batman or Justice League type deal?

Being a vigilante guy myself I would outright support it. If the police can't keep people safe then someone has to do it.

I'd turn him in straight way to the cops.

That's the test. If the Cops can deal with the vigilantes, the vigilante is unnecessary. If they can't, the vigilante IS necessary, and the cops won't be able to stop him anyway.

Depends. If it's someone who just stops crime and turns the criminals over to the cops, I'm all for it. If it's a person who decides to be judge, jury, and executioner, I'm against it completely.

Cool! Go for it!

Honestly, how is this any different in principle from a neighborhood watch? Why would anyone object?

Read my OP to see. Kinda like you catching a bank robber and tieing them up and leaving them for the cops.

that's not really vigilantism then, more like...citizen's arrest.

Can I place the governor under it? If not I am not down. :D

There's no problem with defending yourself or stopping a crime when you just happen to be nearby. When you go around hunting people it crosses over into a gray area.

How big of a gray area is that? I was wondering how people would respond to that. I have always been curious about that.

Grow up.:rolleyes:

Hey, I'm 23 and I like Batman. :( He rocks, he proves you don't need super powers to be a superhero, just millions and millions of expandable cash! :D

As for the OP, eh if the cops fail in their duty to protect the populace, then I would support vigilantism, but I got first dibs on the big gun.

Don't feed the trolls. I'm 27 and like Batman. He does rock. Neo Art just can't take a joke..Does he think I am serious about that? Lord. :rolleyes:

Clearly some people can't a joke. Jeez. Grow up. :rolleyes:

second time in two posts..you're going to need a better comeback.

You can stop now Neo Art, everybody is taking this with a grain of salt but you.

Batman is a gay furry. Superdickery has proven that several times over.

Hmmmm. He still rules.

We need people like the Punisher IRL, to take care of the criminals that the police can't/won't deal with.

Batman does rock, yes.

At least Batman isn't as bad as Robin.

This could be the panel for NAMBLA though. :(

Oh please, I couldn't stand Peter Parker in the Spider man movie, he's too wimpy, to Metrosexual for my taste. At least Bruce Wayne doesn't go all Emo when he loses a girl like Peter did.

Fair enough.

He's not emo in the comics, though. Plus, he would resoundingly kick Batman's ass in a fight. :D

No one is. ;)

Again don't feed the trolls. If he wishes to take this too seriously let him.

Unless Batman has a new Bat gadget that can pwn Spider man.

Ahh it's good to be rich. :D

Can Batman lift a subway or dodge machine gun bullets?

I can't stand Peter Parker. Just drove me up a wall and the guy playing him made it worse!

You sure love to fight don't you?:rolleyes:

I will point out that you followed me into this thread.

Well Duh, the Batman TV series back in the 60s had Robin wearing what seems to be Pantyhose.

But better.

wow, this got off track in a hurry . . .

Anyway, some of the older guys may remember something we used to call "country/frontier justice" If a guy was beating his wife up, or his kids, or was just a bad guy, a few of us would get together and proceed to "teach" him that, that type of behavior was not allowed, and we would usually run them out of town.

ahhh, the good ol' days.

Some troll took this the wrong way and started to flame. I in all honesty would laugh my ass off if somebody did act like batman...Hilarious if you think about it...Lettermans jokes would make it worth it.

I am the Bat Dad! (http://bat-dad.ytmnd.com/)

I would help this vigilante as much as I could. Also, I would try and organize the rest of the neighborhood to try and establish our own Council of Vigilance like they did in San Francisco in the 1800s when the government's attempts at law failed abysmally. Seeing as how we would be out for our own good and not out to get votes, we'd probably do better.

When the Chief of Police is lighting up the BatSign, I don't think it's as much vigilantism, as much as it deputizing the guy.

Someone who stops the crimes and turns them over to the police.

So, like a citizen's arrest? I'd accept that.

As much fun as it would be to have a power ring, having to police an entire sector of space (there are only 3600 so each one would be frickin' huge) would really suck. You'd be better off with a gold power ring, ultimate cosmic power and no responsibilities.

Besides, you'd be vulnerable to the color yellow.

Oh, I wouldn't mind that so much. I'd be able to crush foes with huge green stuff I imagine - that's unbeatable!

Well, the Golden Age sucked generally, so, yeah.

How would I respond to a vigilante? "There's the bad guy, want to borrow my bat or should I just assist?"

I'd help one, or become one.
