    Heroes aren’t always good people. Their reasons are lost to time to the average person, but the message is remembered. The actions supersede the reason.

    Guy Fawkes is not remembered as a person, he’s remembered as a figure.

    Not calling this a good thing.

        Tried to blow up UK parliament with the king inside centuries ago because the king was the wrong kind of Christian. Got caught and hung. In the UK we celebrate the capture every 5th November with a bonfire and fireworks, some places even burn an effigy of guy on the bonfire but that is becoming less common.

      He’s remembered as a figure who wanted to kill all of Parliament and return the nation to an absolute monarchy.
