If you recall the story accurately Banner was trying to sneak in.

That still doesn't explain why he had to go to the university during the day when there were plenty of civilians around. If he was going to sneak in, then it would've made more sense to sneak in at night when there are fewer people around.

Because he could con his way in. Why not at night? Because he would have to break in.

As far as the whole “at night” thing? What was he going to do? Break in?

You just said he was trying to sneak into the university. So it makes no difference if he sneaks in or breaks in, he's still entering a location that he's not allowed to enter. So why the fuck was he so selfish to do it during the day when there were plenty of civilians around instead of doing at night when there were fewer people around?

It actually makes a lot of difference. Like I said, he would have to break in. Now what do you think would’ve happened if he did? He gets arrested by the campus police, or he gets labeled as some campus perv trying to target someone at night, or he has to break in the campus building then break the lock on the lab as Banner. And that lab would probably have a night alarm on it.

Any of these scenarios turning out to be safer or have better odds of working? No. So your “night break in” suggestion is a joke. You obviously haven’t thought that scenario through. Could you imagine how much worse that chaos would be at night?

That isn’t selfish. Just a little misguided. You obviously don’t know what it’s really like for a person with a dream that is prevented by a chronic illness. A relative of mine had asthma all of their life. It prevented them from pursuing certain goals.

Would your friend pursing his or her goals with a chronic illness put other lives at risk? Rogers wanting to join the Amry even though he knew he couldn't fight his own battles would put his fellow soldiers' lives at risk since his fellow soldiers would not only have to fight their own battles on the battlefield but also fight Rogers' battles on the battlefield. That was extremely selfish of Rogers and lacking in character to want to put his fellow soldiers' lives at risk.

And how would he know if he would be a risk? That’s why he tried boot camp. To answer those questions. People with illness/handicap issues try to take on lifesaving careers all of the time. Sometimes they fail. Sometimes they actually succeed. That’s why they’re given trial periods. To answer those questions. Nothing selfish about it pal.

Somehow I get the feeling that if Rogers had quit the boot camp before that munitions accident - and all of those soldiers died because he wasn’t there - you’d be calling him a selfish quitter for that. And blaming him for the loss of their lives. Wouldn’t you?

I didn’t read these points. And I’m not sure what you’re talking about unless you’re referring to Bucky/Winter Soldier.

So basically you have no defense for Rogers aiding and abetting a double-murderer to flee from the authorities and I the process:

1. Endanger the lives of law enforcement officers.
2. Endanger the lives of civilians.
3. Help other criminals to commit and get away with crimes against innocent people.

That was extremely selfish of Rogers and isn't heroic at all.

Like I said you didn’t elaborate so you’re jumping the gun about me not answering. I had to guess at what you might be talking about.
