Hitman - hero or criminal? (Hitman: Absolution)
think about it, hitman didn’t kill a single good person in the story. who has an opinion?Here they write that he only kills bribe takers, drug dealers, murderers, etc. But Just give him such orders. If they had paid the same amount for a simple housewife with three children, he would not have refused. It’s just that he is one of the best, so he is entrusted with the most difficult tasks, and the most difficult thing is to kill the rich people who have surrounded themselves with a bunch of guards (but it’s sooo not easy to earn huge fortunes in an honest way). So it turns out that he only kills "bad guys", but a killer is a killer.
In 5, it is shown especially what was left of the clone .. but nothing actually. I don't consider it a criminal.
He looks like the Punisher - everyone considers him a criminal, and if not for him, bad boars would have divorced.
And in general, did he carry out orders from the Criminals, clearly understanding that they are who they really are?
Yes Agent 47 Saint. Rays of goodness radiate from him. Such kindness of soul still needs to be looked for
Actually, a rhetorical question. He is a criminal. Firstly, this follows from the fact that he is in fact proceeding with the law, i.e. kills people. Secondly, it does not matter how you think it is, the main thing is how it really is. In fact, he is a criminal in its purest form.

How to understand a just criminal? Firstly, if we think purely subjectively, then he can even be Jesus Christ in the eyes of many, figuratively of course. Objectively, he is a murderer, a criminal.

Ah... The fact that he kills, as you say - "bad guys", does not make him a hero in fact. He is a criminal, a perfect killer, a cold-blooded killer.

How to understand a just criminal? ... Och. Simply: justice and law are two different things. Ideally, they should go hand in hand, but not always and not everywhere. As an epic example - This country, where there is a kind of law, but there is no justice. What a living example is worth: the district police officer killed two who attempted on him and his family, and these bastards specifically pointed the muzzle of a sawn-off shotgun at an infant. The result - exceeding the limits of necessary defense (they were armed), as a result they put an expensive cop! Note - not even conditional. Is he a criminal? (rhetorically) Yes, de jure, the fairest court decided so - he is a criminal. De facto, our fucking court wants to be sent to yuh.

It's not that the law doesn't work, but that he breaks the law. That is, if he transgresses him, then he is in fact a criminal, regardless of the opinion of people. This also applies to your words. If justice is committed a crime, then it does not change the criminal himself, he remains them regardless of who he killed. (I'm talking about the 47th)
By the way, I want to note that 47 does not administer justice, he fulfills contracts.

Absolutely correct. But the pulp is that - justice and law are two different things. So the just and the criminal do not contradict each other. "Paragraphs" are not observed.

that's exactly what's different. the fact is that if a person in his "mind" is going to do justice to a person, while breaking the law, then he automatically becomes a criminal, regardless of his motives and views.

"justice over a person, while breaking the law ...." And here the paragraphs are observed. Justice means to perform an act of state activity in which he showed. judicial branch. Those. justice cannot be done formally by breaking the law, otherwise Sharapov is indignant. If my thought is not clear, I will explain: If he is tried at least three times according to the law legally, But in fact to call a criminal a person whose duty to protect his family does not turn his tongue. You can do justice and break the law, especially if this law is dormant. For example, if some collective farmer had killed EdoRasta tsapok a couple of years ago, spitting on the consequences, he would have become a benefactor in the eyes of the people, but also a criminal in court, i.e. a just criminal, Fershtein? As law and justice said in this country, they did not see each other in the eyes,

We are talking about the 47th, and not about the person who protects the family. 47th just such breaks the law.

He kills homosexuals, pedophiles, just murderers and other deputies. So just a criminal

This topic is not covered in the game. Just like in the movie. In general, a penchant for expensive suits speaks of a love of luxury. But he never saved up for his penthouse.
