Citizen Prime, a 40-year-old married man whose first name is Jim, has been protecting the streets of Phoenix for a year. He became a superhero to spread the message that people don't have to be fearful of crime. "Are you going to sit inside scared that a terrorist might attack your city, or are you going to go out and live your life?" he asked. But Prime, who patrols once or twice a week in a black, blue and yellow costume, found one chink in his armor. He couldn't find any crime. "The only crime I've ever stopped is when I was actually walking out of a sporting goods store with my wife," he said. "A shoplifter came running past me, and I managed to throw him to the ground."

I might have actually come down to Pheonix had I known you guys had this guy fighting crime in your streets.

Unfortunately, he gets mugged by the heat and roving packs of coyote's on a daily basis.

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

I always thought finding a crime in progress would be the toughest part of being a superhero. And it looks like that is the case.

I like The Eye better.



Mountain View isn't even that far from me.  I should ask my friends who live there if they've ever heard of him.
