Just a matter of time until someone decides to dress up like a “super-VILLIAN” to fight the “super hero”…. just saying

Hey, if some guys are deluded enough to think they’re McGruff, taking a bite out of crime by wearing silly costumes, let ‘em.

They’ll look funny in their coffins (if they can still have a open casket.)

I live in New York where you get shot for being too dark after dark by some suburban white-boy who was airdropped in from Long Island somewhere or you get punctured like a balloon by some semi-simian from the Poconos.

Wearing a costume is just asking to get your face served to you on a hubcap.

@Ah_Yea – you’re right. Abolish the Police entirely and tell citizens to do it themselves roaming the streets wearing costumes. That’ll solve all the crime. While we’re at it: let’s tell the citizenry to take over air traffic control also. WTF

So what says:

Life is not a comic book. Its pretty much a given that all superheroes are vigilantes.

What’s the big deal?
Curtis Sliwa had gangs of uniformed vigilantes roaming the streets years ago. After a period of adjustment, people finally got used to them and then started to support them. To the best of my memory, Sliwa didn’t get beaten up. He got a book deal and a radio show. I can’t wait to listen to the Phoenix Jones Show. Or maybe Fox will give him a slot between O’Reilly and Beck.

Hm.

One of the things said consistently about Batman costumes over the years:

1. You can’t move your head.
2. You can’t hear.

Does his life insurance company and health insurance company know he does this?

I bet he’s single.
