I was reading some issues of Marvel Comics last year and I came across the civil war series that all started when during a fight between the super powered New Warriors and a group of Badguys who also had super powers a School and 6 city blocks blew up after that the government decided to make all super heroes and anyone else with mutant powers have a licence in order to use their powers so If a kid was late for school and decided to fly because he missed the bus he would be prosecuted under the law for doing so without a licence what do you think should our goveernments be allowed to do this to us one day or not

No. We don't have powers.

And if we did, I wouldn't suggest making them known. Not only is it a bad tactic as far as losing that element of surprise, but, the greater you make yourself out to be, the more people will expect from you.

There is great tactical power in humility... I find that people do not often know what to expect that way, and it suites me just fine.

Do I think people need to be licensed? No, that would be stupid. Let them be sure, to show commitment, but don't force it.

I don't think We need licecnces it was just a thought that came up when I was reading the Marvel Civil war series because I know that not all those guys had Super Powers Some like the Punisher and Iron Man are just ordanairy men Iron man wears a special suit that gives him those abilities to fly and such the Punisher is just an ex cop who carries a large shipment of weapons to take on the mobs that killed his familyand Dare Devil is a guy who is very talented in the ways of Martial Arts and Martial Law and so they are taken in for being Super heroes I was shocked when I found out that Spiderman revealed himself on CNN newscausing JJ Jameson to almost swallow his cigar I know that I could never do thatgo on tv and take off my mask and tell the whole world who I am I don't think that it is anybody's bussiness who I am would you do it if the government told you to or would you take a stand for your rights. Tomorrow I am going to see if I can find the campain advertisements that were done By Captain America and Iron man getting both sides of the argument then we could have a debate over the pros and cons of this I do disagree with Tothian on one thing he said about not making our powers known if we had them What would happen if for some reason we were forced to use our powers in public say a person was falling from a great height or there was a car speeding towards a child would you just stand there and let the child get hit and killed by the car or would you save him I would save him would you be able to live with the guilt knowing that you had the chance to save a life yet you tood by and did nothing Scince I have become known as Polarman people have been expecting more from me but think of the things wthat we could do the lives that would be saved if that were possible as far as the kids here are concerned I could be Batman or a Power Ranger because I have seen some make shift "Polarman" action figures Batman with a white suit the cape removed and replaced with a black sleeveless jacket or vest the Black and the White Power rangers traded each others arms and legs and the Red Ranger trading his torso with the White ranger So we have a Captain Canuck the blue ranger wearing the red ranger's torso and helmet to look like Spider-Man Yes I did Anonyman as well he is the black Ranger with the blue ranger's torso with a Batman cape so I did create Anonyman for the kid in Sakatoon.

Good God man, what's your superpower, the inability to use punctuation? BREATHE!

Just to be clear here, I understand the element of surprise is an important factor in any combat engagement, but that is not the time to worry about revealing too much information about your level of skill. I just want to be sure that you are not meaning to say that you would perform below your level-best for the purpose of your skill level not being accurately described to future targets by the target you neutralize. Certainly you should use the least amount of gadgetry possible, but if you want to build a "tough guy" reputation as a crimefighter, then it becomes necessary to always fight at 100%, so that word DOES get around about how easily you dispatch the criminal element. Just a thought.

Keep in mind that trying to restrict freedoms like this would be unconstitutional here in America anyway.. I know in other countries it may be less of an issue, but really the right to defend yourself or your community is an inalienable right.

I don't agree with a license.

As I've said elsewhere, whether the government licenses you, sponsors you, or registers you, it is still the government doing something to take control over your life. We already have enough of that, there is no need to take this freedom away too.

I already have two licenses, drivers and occupational. I don't want any more government "regulation" in my wallet.

If you need a license to be a good Samaritan, then I'd might as well sign up and become a police officer.

Mandatory licences wouldn't be right. But it'd be nice if the option was there.

Even if you don't "register" with your local police department.. and I can't stress this enough.. make friends with the patrol officers in your area. If they know you're out there and willing to give them information and keep them in the loop, they will be less likely to hassle you.

For example, Master Legend and Superhero are known by the cops and work well with them. Watchman is always happy to show his id and cooperate with the police. And several other heroes have been known to aid local PD.

I realize there are those amongst us that prefer anonymity, because their activities aren't strictly legal. And some would like to have the ability to slip the mask off to avoid prosecution if they mess up. To me this is a way of not showing accountability for one's actions. If you make a mistake, you are subject to the same laws as every other citizen on the streets. Using a mask to avoid prosecution for wrong doing isn't heroic. If you are breaking the law then anything you give to the police by way of evidence is worthless and allows criminals to stay free.

Be responsible. be accountable. Be a hero.
