When we were growing up, the cartoons we watched usually drew a pretty clear line between good guys and bad guys.
Robbers would act aggressive towards terrified bank employees until Spider-Man or Batman showed up and punched them out. Then, with some kind words towards the rattled victims and either a funny quip or a few solemn words about justice (depending who we're talking about), they'd be off.
As we get older, however, it becomes clear that the world and the people in it are a little more complicated than those stories suggest. For instance, it's entirely possible for a robber to be in a desperate situation, show genuine love to those around them, and yet still do unspeakably terrible things.
