Honestly, my blame has shifted from the heroes not killing people to the city's themselves not electing to institute the death penalty when they have so many issues and repeat offenders. Their facilities obviously aren't equipped to rehabilitate or contain all of their inmates as they keep getting out and committing more murders. It makes me wonder what these heroes would do if that happened. Do they just keep them locked away forever, pay to keep them alive and become the judge, jury and execution like they say they want to avoid? Would they try to force cities to repeal the death penalty, taking away the agency of the public and law makers to decide how to govern themselves? Do they have to retire from the job, because their is no good alternative, and every time they turn in a super villain, they know they are essentially feeding them into the meat-grinder?
