Finding it in the first place would be hard, and getting there faster than evenly-distributed squad cars would be even harder.
Then once they get there, more often than not beating an individual person up isn’t the solution - even if it’s a domestic, the victims have a way of sticking up for the abuser. Or maybe it’s a dispute and you’re not sure who the bad guy is, and you’d need some kind of court system to work it out anyway.
In real life where those problems can’t be written out, you’ve basically taken everything the police are criticised for and amplified it.
And what has changed since? An individual murdering one single person doesn’t change anything in the grand scheme of things. You can’t lone wolf systemic change.
I wonder how many it would take though? It’sa shame that we’ll probably never find out because even if they enact laws or taxes on wealth, I e little chance of the wealthy letting it apply to them.
Someone that fights through the layers of security guards until reaching the final boss of the CEO might change the CEO’s mind with some physical persuasion.
Bruce Wayne would have reduced city crime way faster by building affordable housing, and tending to the basic needs of the homeless and the disadvantaged using only the extra profit margins of his wealth.
But he literally does. The problem is that Gotham is literally fucking cursed in a way that makes people aggressive and evil. And like, I don’t think that kinda stuff would stop the Joker from bombing orphanages, or Black Mask/Penguin from running protection rackets, or stop Killer Croc from literally eating people, or stop Nigma from putting people in actual Saw traps…
Like, a good portion of Batman’s rogue gallery are people that the police CANNOT deal with. Hell, I would argue that even an entire counter-terrorism unit couldn’t deal with the bullshit the Batman rogues pull in a weekly basis.
EDIT: Oh yeah, let’s not forget half of the police in Gotham (if not ALL OF IT) is corrupt and is getting bought by those SAME rogues.
The last movie touches on this in that there is a Wayne fund for this improving socioeconomic conditions, but every politician and mafia member has their fingers in it. Good shit. Could’ve cut the length by a good 40 minutes or so

You could specialize in types of crime the cops don’t usually get involved in, like corporate wage theft.
You need lawyers to fight that, not vigilantes
Vigilante lawyers?
This is literally Daredevil lmao
Practicing law… without a license
It’s true, this isn’t Mario and the money won’t come out just from jumping on them.
What if it’s Luigi?
I was gonna say. I know one CEO that isn’t stealing anyone’s wages anymore.

We’re still waiting for free healthcare to come out of Brian Thompson’s grave and start sliding along just above the ground.
The crime was very well planned, but a random CEO wasn’t actually a meaningful target. The Charlie Kirk thing was basically the opposite.
You have to hold them upside down and shake them for the money to fall out of their pockets.

It’s unclear what effect that would have on the many costume-wearing criminals, but we can hope.
