Watched Supergirl 2×19 Alex the other day (I’m posting this late) and I find it uncomfortable to be against Supergirl but I was. Maggie had a point.

If there had been a bank stand-off for 16 hours – 16! – then what had Kara been doing all that time? Like why wait 16 hours to intervene? I might have been a bit more sympathetic if she had intervened immediately but at 16 hours???

Plus the Supergirl defence sounds all too possible. Breaking an arm, busting a big hole in the ceiling – actions have consequences you know. Kara thinks just because she believes in what she is doing, that it’s “right” that she can do whatever she wants.

I side with Maggie. Kara can fight aliens, do what the police can’t, but otherwise unless they ask for help she should leave it alone. I mean sure if she spots a car accident, she can be the “jaws of life”, or if there’s a fire she can help put it out. Natural disasters, getting people out of harms way, preventing destruction – all of that is good! Supergirl can do all of that but criminal cases? That requires cooperation, not just riding roughshod over everyone because “I’m Supergirl and I mean well so everything I do is right”.

Anyway sorry for venting but Kara’s arrogance does bother me. I love her don’t get me wrong but that doesn’t mean I always agree with her.
