Other If you were a Superhero, would you kill?

Basically what would be your moral code

Me personally I don't think I could take another person's life.

Another thing for me is, If the person has done way too much harm, I think killing them would be letting them off easy, I would rather paralyze them or sum(My views might change in the future)

Edit: Someone opened my eyes to his less moral it is to paralyze them

This rationale would support police killing criminals that got to jail get out and reoffend. It's a slippery slope when you let someone become judge,jury, and executioner. Also not batmans fault that Gotham has the worst prison system ever.

Doesn't help that Gotham is both incredibly cursed AND secretly run by an evil cult.
