I will save you from yourself
Time will change everything about this hell
Are you lost?
Can’t find yourself?
You’re north of Heaven
Maybe somewhere west of Hell
I’m watching the second season of Daredevil and one thing that I noticed – and really liked – was the jury selection scene for Frank’s trial.
The white men of the group said, “animal,” and “fascist,” and “unhinged.”
The women of the group – most of whom were WOC – were the ones who said, “I applaud him,” and “he’s a hero.”
Because when it comes down to it, Frank was dealing his brand of justice to scumbag men who thought they could do and say and take whatever they wanted. And at the end of the day, it was the women of the city who were really protected by him, the ones who benefited from getting those particular scumbags off the street.
For once, the men of the world were scared to step out of their doors with the Punisher on the street, and the women felt a little safer with him out there.
And considering what Frank lost, that’s pretty much the entire point of his vigilantism.

↳ Daredevil: Season 2 — Somebody ask you to put on that costume or you take it upon yourself? You know what I think of you, hero? I think you’re a half-measure. I think you’re a man who can’t finish the job. I think that you’re a coward. You know the one thing that you just can’t see? You know you’re one bad day away from being me.
The Punisher #16 (2012)

Remember my face! It’s the last thing you’re ever going to see … and I want you to carry the memory of it straight to hell!
They’re gonna pay. Every single goddamn one of ‘em.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
how to be a monster:
1. learn the taste of dirt and pain.
2. teach it to others till your knuckles bleed.
3. see if that makes it easier to breathe.

What about you, Frank? What happens the day someone decides you deserve it? Tell you what, they better not miss.
People that can hurt you, the ones that can really hurt you, are the ones that are close enough to do it. People that get inside you and tear you apart, and make you feel like you’re never gonna recover. Shit. I’d chop my arm off right here, in this restaurant, just to feel that one more time for my wife. My old lady, she didn’t just break my heart. She’d rip it out, she’d tear it apart, she’d step on that shit, feed it to a dog. She was ruthless. She brought the pain. But she’ll never hurt me again. You see, I’ll never feel that. You sit here and you'are all confused about this thing, but you have it. You have everything. So hold on to it. Use two hands and never let go. You got it?
You cross over to my side of the line, you don’t get to come back from that.
Not ever.
