I suppose that'd be 'mmmkay' if i didn't have absolutely no faith in the police whatsoever.
But I can't speak for American police.
I can only see the flaws in the British system, in which even when violent riots erupt in all our major cities, our policemen's hands are tied because if they use 'excessive force' they'll be fired.
And I'm not saying ALL the 'superheroes' out there don't fit into the category you speak of, and just want to do it because it's cool or makes them feel more important.
But that doesn't mean you have to condemn them all.
Why do you have to have special official police training to see a mugging and intervene?
It's no different than any person trying to enforce a citizens arrest I suppose... The only reason it's seen as 'silly' is because of what their wearing.
