Hero vs Vigilante

[A-Man]

Ok this is how it is. If you have someone that is out every night saving and protecting people from under a mask, Is he a hero or a vigilante?

I think a vigilante is a person that take justice into their own hands. A Hero is a person who risks his own life to save others. And not wanting to take personal credit for it. Cops, Medics, Fire Fighters they all get recognized on a personal level. people under a mask don't want that, they only want the symbolthey represent to be known.

With that said. It's your thoughts I want to hear. And Yes all post welcome

a hero tends to be paid...

a hero is legit. Cops, firemen, etc... are heroes. Vigilantes are unofficial. They're seen as criminals I think.

I don't really have anything constructive to add, other than that is a very unforunate username you have chosen, A-Man.

If you save someone's life, you're a hero.

If you try to take down people you believe to be criminals, you're a vigilante.

If you're willing to... you're mine.

A hero is selfless and couragous. A vigilante does things for his own gratification.

If you're wearing a mask, fighting 'evil people' even though it may seem heroic, you are still a vigilante.

You are not a cop, you don't have the authority.

Bounty hunters are *****e-bags, just thought I'd share.

I'd just like to take the time to agree with Badger. VERY unfortunate name, and that's coming from me...

You might not understand why yet, but I'm sure you will soon.

Look, quit skipping out on your bail and you won't have that problem, okay?

I agree Badger. It could only be worse if the dash was replaced by two asterisks.
