Real Life Superhero Thwarts Robbery, Gains TV Fame

I fully support what this man is doing, and more people should be doing these acts of heroism, but I'm also a little worried for his safety. There are some dangerous people out there who wouldn't take lightly to their cocaine ring being stopped by a costumed superhero. I have full faith that this guy has the best intentions in mind and is sane/skilled enough to follow up on them, but he could get into some serious trouble with the wrong people if he gets too active in his crimefighting.
Next thing you know he's going to be finding a new hidden lair >.>
That's why we need Yoshi-Batman xD!
Good news but this is going end up ugly.
You know as much as this news is awesome, he's probably going to end up seriously injured or worse. People are going to try and kill him and getting publicity is just the wrong way to go.AvsJoe said:

What is the point of being a super hero if you don't have super powers or a super suit and everyone knows who you are and where to find you? One day he's gonna get in a way of some bad people and they'll kill him. You wanna fight crime - join the police force. They'll even give you a real weapon and a vehicle.
I admire his idealism, but I don't approve of his methods. It's not practical.

Except he's about as well equipped as the police in that respect. The only thing he doesn't have is a gun, which, knowing the Seattle police being COMPLETELY INSANE, is probably a good thing. Batman doesn't have a super suit, just gadgets. He looks pretty built this guy, and can probably fight pretty decently.ImprovizoR said:
Wonderful. An impressionable would-be vigilante who apparently didn't get the message when Kick-Ass nearly got beaten to death.
If this guy ever sticks his nose into a high-profile crime and gets noticed by the kind of people who know how to bring the pain, he's history. Not saying I like it, but that's how the world works - you step on the wrong toes and you end up fumbling your plea for mercy because of the barrel of a .45 sticking in your mouth.

I'm usually very sceptical about stuff like this, but... this guy actually seems quite good. A taser night-stick? Bulletproof plates? And that suit isn't as gawdy as some 'real life superhero' costumes. And he really did stop a crime, it's not like he's just wandering the streets then running away as soon as shit gets real.
Come on, how is this not cool?

Noooo, all lies! Frasier Crane is Seattle's most famous... eh, never mind ;-)

This was a lot cooler than I anticipated. This guy can -actually- do some serious crime-fighting.
Car thefts are a pretty good example of something he could stop. Bullets though? I hope nobody in that area has a gun. I dunno if a Bulletproof vest would suffice.
