![]() ![]() Oh how your leader has abandoned you! Phoenix Jones bails on his friends and colleagues at the drop of a hat. Instead, he wants those physically unfit heroes that Jones wrote about to come forward with their stories, so he can make a video that will basically crush Jones once and for all. The bad news is that Rex Velvet, the faux villain inspired by Jones’s crimefighting/nerdery, also took to Facebook last Friday with his own rant however, he didn’t take the chance to declare victory. The good news is that Jones will still go it alone in the streets of Seattle, where he will undoubtedly run into more racist a-holes and their Mighty Mouse friends, who he will kick in the head to the delight of the Internet (the actual police are another story). I JUST CAN’T IN GOOD CONSCIENCE CONTINUE TO PUT MY SEAL OF APPROVE ON PEOPLE I FEEL ARE NOT LOYAL OR PROPERLY TRAINED.ĪS ALWAYS BE SAFE MAKE GOOD CHOICES AND I’LL SEE YOU IN THE STREETS. IM SORRY IF I LET ANYONE DOWN I WILL CONTINUE TO PATROL AND HELP PEOPLE. I WANT YOU TO KNOW WE HAVE FIRST AID CPR TRAINING, WE HAVE TAKING BLOOD BORNE PATHOGENS TRAINING AND THAT WE WILL ONLY WORK WITH OTHERS WHO ARE EQUALLY PHYSICALLY AND MEDICALLY TRAINED. WHEN I OR ANY MEMBER OF THE RCSM SHOW UP TO HELP YOU. I LOVE BEING A SUPERHERO AND I BELIVE THERE IS A CERTAIN LEVEL OF PROFESSIONALISM THAT GOES WITH THAT. OR WANT TO PATROL WITH OTHER “SUPERHEROES” THAT HAVE A TRACK RECORD OF MAKING BAD CHOICES THAT ARE POTENTIAL DANGEROUS. OR BELIVE IT IS OK TO CARRY ILLEGAL WEAPONS. I WILL NOT GO INTO TO MANY DETAILS BUT I FEEL YOU DESERVE A FEW REASON WHY WE CAN NO LONGER WORK TOGETHER. I WANT YOU TO KNOW BY DOING THIS IM LOSING FRIENDS I HAVE SHARED UNFORGETTABLE MOMENTS WITH BUT IF IM GOING TO CALL MYSELF A SUPER HERO I MUST HOLD MYSELF AND FRIENDS TO HIGH STANDARDS. I WILL BE PATROLLING SOLO / WITH SUPERS I TRUST. IT TAKES A CERTAIN TYPE OF PERSON TO DO THIS JOB CORRECTLY AND UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE INSPIRED, WORKED WITH, AND EVEN TAUGHT SOME OF THE WRONG KINDS OF PEOPLE.ĪS OF TODAY THE RAIN CITY SUPERHERO MOVEMENT IS OVER. I REALLY THOUGHT THAT HAVING A LARGE GROUP OF CIVILIAN CRIME FIGHTERS WAS A GOOD IDEA. I STARTED FIGHTING CRIME YEARS AGO AND INSPIRED ALOT IF PEOPLE TO DO THE SAME. Prepare to watch Superman die again, America. While those in the Common Sense Brigade might have greeted this news with a hearty, “No duh,” it seems that some of Jones’s Facebook followers just couldn’t believe what he had written in his lengthy and obnoxiously all-caps Facebook rant. ![]() The leader of the movement, Phoenix Jones (AKA MMA fighter Ben Fodor) announced in a Facebook post last Thursday that asking random citizens to join him in his bizarre-but-totally-legal campaign against street crime was a pretty bad idea. Madison Gray is Homepage Producer at Rain City Superhero Movement is no more, as the people of Seattle must now prepare for a dark, sinister era of crime. The masked “vigilante,” dressed in a rubber costume that looks like a combination of used Spawn and Batman outfits, was arrested and sat in King County Jail before he posted $3,800 bail, according to the Seattle Times. Fodor’s next court appearance is scheduled for Thursday.Īt least Luke Cage got paid for his superheroism. Police say there wasn’t a fight and he was the offender, while a spokesman says Phoenix Jones was defending a man being “viciously beaten.”Īfter Fodor doused random people with pepper spray and was hit with women’s purses, police come to break up the skirmish. Followed by a camera crew and a guy in Insane Clown Posse makeup, he jumped into the fracas. Reports of the movement sprang up earlier this year when Seattle police noted that one of the members of the group was nearly shot when he ran out of a dark park and two others, who had donned masks, were nearly arrested when a witness thought they were going to rob a gas station.įodor’s altercation unfolded as he ran into a group of clubbers scuffling in the street. He is the leader of a group of super-friends called the Rain City Superhero Movement, according to his Facebook page, who pledge to get in the way every time something happens in the street intervene when the weak need defending. To give a little background on this crime fighter who seems to be garnering international headlines, Phoenix Jones is apparently the alter ego of mixed martial arts fighter Benjamin Fodor. Apparently, his heat vision and super-speed weren’t available, but a can of Sabre was. Follow a Seattle man’s imagination just a bit too active, or is he really called to the duty of protecting the city’s citizens as “superhero” Phoenix Jones?Ī judge will be deciding that, as Jones faces charges stemming from an altercation early Sunday with club-goers in which he jumped into a fight taking place and started pepper spraying people. ![]()
