Questions about being a vigilante?

Postby achban » Fri Apr 13, 2012 8:36 am

I have been in a kind of batman mood lately, and I was wondering several things. 1: Is being a vigilante only illegal if your identity is secret? 2: can a "vigilante" simply make arrests with minimal violence if a crime is obviously being committed? 3: is it possible for a vigilante to become a law officer, but still with their same kinda find criminals in dark alleys & take 'em down attitude?

Questions about being a vigilante?

1. No, it's illegal period.

2. A citizen's arrest is not a good idea, no, and any police officer will tell you to stay the f* out of the business.

3. Here's what happens then: You get your ***-whupped, and then you end up arrested.

Sorry, but life is not like a Comic Book.

No a citizen can not take crime that criminals commit into their own hands and you can be charged for being a vigilante identity hidden or not and no they cannot become law enforcers you must go through training and pass test and many other requirements to be a law enforcer a citizen is supposed to contact authorities when a crime takes place they are suppose to handle the crimes for the safety of the society.
