You either die a hero, or live long enough to become a villain.

I must be a supervillain, because I take such pleasure in reading this news.

Now if you'll excuse me, my fluffy white cat needs feeding, and the oubliette needs to be cleaned out.

Much like #5, I also must be a supervillain.... because I come out of nightclubs and get pepper sprayed. Though, usually for my own enjoyment. I just thought Jones was in to the kinky stuff.

because every superhero needs a spokesman

Roma Jones would have a spokeswoman. A hot spokeswoman.

This guy has a mental health problem, and he should be treated for it, rather than jailed. As to him being useful as a crime fighter, who knows. Just having an extra pair of hands nearby could theoretically prevent a rape or assault. I just wanna know how to get a hold of him in the event I should need him. For a nephew's birthday party, for example.

@9 - If you want to hire the mentally ill to entertain at your nephew's birthday party, consider holding the party in a psychiatric hospital. It's much cheaper, and they have everything they need to do their thing right there without carting it around to your house. Plus, you don't have to clean up afterwards; they have people on staff to do that for you.

Um ... I'll wait to see this video ... if he did break up a fight, he needs to be rewarded, if not, he needs to be charged.

I thought the Keene Act put an end to this nonsense.

Is this the part in the comic book where the superhero is wrongly accused and "Gotham Hall" angrily prosecutes him...until the real villain comes into town with some unstoppable Super-Ray that only Phoenix Jones can defeat?

Every superhero also needs liability insurance. I strongly suspect this dickhead does not.

Wouldn't a real Seattle super hero run up and lecture the victim on white privilege and pat the perp on the head and send them home to grandma's house with some of our 'social justice' taxpayer dollars?

@15 - It's the only way they'll learn.

This means his real name is now part of the public record, unfortunately.

Obviously, from the video, deescalation training is apparently NOT part of the Superhero 101 curriculum.

(Must be graduate level class...)

Holy shit, there was a juggalo involved.

Local villanized superhero versus clown bad guys.

I've never seen a superhero yell "Call 911" as he's running towards the crime scene.

WOW, SPD is pathetic, how can ANYBODY watch the video and say a fight wasn't happening. right before he gets there you see guys throwing punches. And then later in the video the chick that was screaming and hitting the guy with her shoes runs up to some car (that has nothing to do with Jones) and starts hitting it and then said car tries to run one of the group over? YEAH those guys were just celebrating and dancing as one big happy crowd. BULLCRAP!!! SPD says that things like this should be left to professionals. It took them like 20 minutes to get there after they were called. VERY professional. somebody could have been beat to death in that time AND the person doing it would have got away. This Jones guy was there and stopped somebody from getting possibly seriously hurt and they arrest HIM? SPD just mad because they keep getting shown to be ineffective by one man. So they arrest him to prove how big their.....nightsticks are. Bunch of joke cops.
