It must be a nice view from your high horse? Linda. You seem to make a generalization. Barry didn't purposefully risk those lives with Flashpoint but even the best people are going to struggle with letting their loved ones die

It's nothing to do with being on a high horse. But would you destroy a whole town and everyone in it to save a loved one?
That's why humans should never have these kinds of powers. Humans are weak. Thankfully for us these things don't exist in real life. We're already destroying the planet with the things at our disposable as it issigpic

My philosophy is that you truly won't know until you are put into that situation.

He kept saying "i will be damned if i ever got that way where i would willfully break the law for my kids sake and deprive him of a dad"..
THen i heard 3 years later.. he's in jail, CAUSE he was breaking the law (speeding 95 on a 55 road, and blowing through light after light after stop sign etc, to get his kid to hospital, even though all he had was a 101 deg fever, which was just the common cold, nothing life threatening)...

I've seen a few people reverse just like that...grant it in less extreme ways. One day they swear that they'll never ever ever get married and the next day I'm at their wedding type of thing.
I'd like to think that heroes would be heroes and sacrifice all of their own to save the day and never risk the day for the sake of their own. Buuuutttttt, let's be honest here. Would we do that? Would anyone? And as I mentioned, the comics do explore things like this. That's why I disagree with linda, the shows are just following in the comics' footsteps...although in very clumsy ways at times.
