IN DEFENCE OF THE PUNISHER

You’ve got to be kidding.

Defend the Punisher? Justify what Frank Castle does to people? Condone the actions of a mass-murderer, whose bodycount must run well into the tens of thousands by now? I think not.

Yes, I know these are more sensitive times than the seventies, when the likes of Dirty Harry, Death Wish and Big Frank himself were let loose on the public psyche. I’m well aware we have to be more aware of the consequences of our actions. No one knows better than I do that everything must be viewed in its appropriate socio-political contex. I can see why Frank’s little hobby might be viewed as requiring some kind of justification.

But only by morons.

    …yes, yes he is. He’s not doing it at all with the intent to do ‘good’. If you’re going to compare to another character...

    But since he never kills innocent people, only the ones that harm other people, is he really that bad?
