And if you make a mistake, too bad ? People do make mistakes. Hell, in comicbookland it's even worse than real life, since there's a good chance that he really was mind controlled or possessed, or the evil twin/clone/android double/shapeshifter did it, or that your own memories were tampered with.MadSorcerer wrote:Do you know what "known villain" means? It's when you know without a doubt that a person is guilty. And if you know someone committed a crime like murder or rape and was going to do it again what would be the harm in putting them down?

Frank Castle, like Chuck Norris, doesn't make mistakes. Or, well, so far he hasn't. And the types he goes after are typically the ones who don't have a high risk of being mind controlled, possessed, androided or whatever. I.e. everyday average scum.

Re: Mildest of spoilerage
You lurk on Gangsta Punisher Army too? I read as much there (though the assumption was pornographers instead of "just" molesters), but as my mind has a tendency to skim whatever I'm looking on (yes, even visuals), I didn't even notice the camera, the bed being in the basement and the apparent tapes on the shelves, much less put two and two together -- apparently (IMO) my attention span is "less than short-term." x_XLoner wrote:Apparently that couple were child molesters.Edward Yee wrote:Incidentally, that's the topic of the next arc, "Widowmaker." (Albeit it's the wives as the antagonists -- but in a preview page, he kills the female of a couple.)Think of the grief Frank causes to those mobsters friends and families. Many of which probably wouldn’t have a problem with there executions if they were decided by a court, not a fucking vigilantly.
Nevertheless, on first thought I thought that those pages told a "silent" (no dialogue, no captions) story in and of itself, it was that good.

Actual Justice? The only difference between the justices are in the amount of people who follow it. If everyone in the entire world believed that it was just to kill murderers on the sight then it would be just.Vendetta wrote:No, it isn't. Because once an individual starts believing that they are the sole arbiter of "justice" they are prone to making decisions based on their own subjective morality, not the wider code of ethics that informs actual justice. Frank Castle only spares people he thinks are innocent, and, well, he's mentally unstable and should be in a loony bin.MadSorcerer wrote:Better to be a monster than a person like Batman who never gets anything done. People would be a lot safer if he killed the Joker or any of his other enemies.
So basically a slope argument. There's no evidence that someone like Frank will someday start killing innocents. Just like there's no evidence that someday you might kill somebody.Vendetta wrote:No, it just creates something just as dangerous as the person you just killed. *snip*MadSorcerer wrote:So going around killing people akin to the Joker or Hitler wouldn't help society? If Batman had killed the Joker the third time he escaped many people would still be alive or sane. That seems like a plus.

If someone like Batman existed, he'd be shot by the criminals the very instant he'd jump out of a toilet in his costume. In desolate crime-ridden shitholes with ineffectual police, Frank Castle would have a better chance at stopping some of the criminals before getting killed.Big Orange wrote:If somebody like the Joker or Frank Castle existed, they would both be gunned down by the police or FBI years ago...

No. I go to Superherohype's Punisher board, and go to thepunisher.com daily.Edward Yee wrote:You lurk on Gangsta Punisher Army too?
