in "dark knight" the phrase keeps getting repeated that he is a vigilante, that part i get. i dont understand how he is an "outlaw" though? can someone explain that to me?
Compare Batman to Superman. Superman captures the criminal whenever possible and makes sure they get a fair trial. If the court determines that they're innocent, he leaves them alone. He is Lawful Neutral.
Batman, however, will usually kill the criminal outright. He might even kill some innocents, too, if the criminal is an immense threat. And I doubt he would be above torture if he needs information. He is Chaotic Good.
Both are guilty of such crimes as:
Assault
Murder
Kidnapping
Trespassing
Driving over the speed limit
Destruction of property
Owning and using heavy weapons and explosives
Keep in mind that superheros are not usually authorized to fight crime on behalf of the government, and citizen's arrest is only legal in cases where the citizen has observed the criminal commit a felony.
Batman especially ruins a lot of property owned by innocents, and has probably indirectly caused numerous injuries and deaths. If you saw a black-clothed man blowing through a building to chase a clown guy, you would probably assume that they are both evil and insane, and run in the other direction.
