[QUOTE="Flamestrike, post: 8565869, member: 6788736"] All of the Avengers are good decent people. It's just that Cap follows a very strict code of honor and responsibility. It's what drives his frequent tension with Tony, who doesnt. Id hazard a guess you're alone there. He kills kids does he? He kills non criminals? He has a very strict (but warped and morally repugnant) and black and white code. Like the Batman, Castle dresses in black, wages a vigilante war on crime, motivated by the loss of his family, and respects family, honor and tradition. Unlike the Batman, Castle is a monster, and prepared to engage in murder, torture and ultraviolence to others in his war on crime. Both are Lawful. It's just the Punisher is also Evil. He's limited all the time! It's core to the tension between him and Stark. Stark wants to adopt [I]pragmatic [/I]solutions, but Cap refuses on [I]principle[/I]. He's not 'biologically' LG mate. He's strongly principled, never once taking an option that goes against his code. He fights for honor, family and tradition according to his code (lawful) and is also a morally a kind, merciful, altruistic and compassionate (good) person. He's not acting [I]rashly [/I]there! He knows he will die, and accepts that fate. He stands up to a superhuman leagues above him, because thats what his code dictates he do. There are other options. He could bugger off and fight a guerilla war. Surrender. Join Thanos. Kill Vision to remove the Stone from Thanos. But his code dictates he stand and fight for what is right. Its the harder option, and one that will likely see him killed. But he's OK with self sacrifice (as we see repeatedly). And remind me again, [I]what [/I]did he choose, and [I]why [/I]did he choose it? [/QUOTE]
