Superheroes!



At the corner of 2nd Avenue and Bell, in Belltown; I was just walking home, minding my own business and bam... Superheroes!

If you live in Seattle, you have probably heard about Phoenix Jones and the Rain City Superheroes, if not check out these articles:

Real-Life Superhero Gets Nose Broken
Seattle Superhero 'Phoenix Jones' Patrols Streets, Fights Crime

You can also find Phoenix Jones on Facebook, and drop him a line.

There is a lot of controversy and talk about whether superheroes are a bad idea or not. The broken nose and gun incident happened in Belltown, where we have crack zombies, drug dealers and hookers doing their business out in the open. Apparently, we do not have enough police to do accurate patrolling and the way I look at it, the more "good people" on the street the better. Though groups like Belltown Citizens on Patrol and People's Belltown Republic might be better, safer ideas.

Oh, and this is like the worst pic of me ever ;)
