    How do you reconcile:

    Did the cops try to kill him? No

    with:

    Literally kneeling into his neck for nine minutes

    Yes, this question is rhetorical. We all know the answer.

          Reddit is going to remove this, CCP is going to censor this, liberals will harass me, SJWs are going to cancel me, […] ...is going to come to my house and kill me, but I agree with you, brave redditor. I will risk my life by upvoting this in the name of freedom of expression.

        Gotham not nuking the prisoner boat to save the citizens from doing it themselves and getting their hands dirty was the most unrealistic part of that movie.

        The guards taking any actual choice away from the prisoners was realistic until you realize in real life the guards would have "feared for their lives" and would have "just wanted to go home that night to their families," hit the switch, and then would have covered it up by blaming it on the tall scary black guy.

          absolutely unrealistic, the whole scene, but you change that last dialogue and one other line, and the joker is a straight up hero. who does he actually kill aside from prosecutors and cops? and he traumatizes a prosecutor into growing half a conscience, almost giving himself justice! he's a total straw anarchist, and he still manages to be more heroic than batman.

            I believe he kills at least one or two nameless criminals along the way as well. Not sure if the pencil trick man is dead, but I'm inclined to believe in the context of the movie he's supposed to be.

            To your point though, there are no "innocent bystanders" killed by him. You still need to write out him trying to blow up the boats himself though, and if attacking a hospital is a war crime then I don't think blowing one up after making everyone evacuate is a good look for him either.

          I really wanted it to turn out that the switches were just wired up to their own boats, and the civilians just blew themselves up before time ran out.

    apparently him being on drugs means it’s ok to kneel on his neck for almost ten fucking minutes to kill him. I hate America

      I fully believe the "almost eight minutes" number originally going around was intentionally disseminated to make the murder seem not quite as terrible.

      "Sure, it looks bad, but before we judge this blue hero for using a tactical compliance technique for slightly longer than department policy dictates you have to take into account the totality if the situation, wait for the edited police camera footage, hear from the information officer, and pull the suspect's high school transcripts.

      I mean it's not like they did something crazy like choke him out for 10 minutes or something, you know?"

    Right wingers have been weaponizing awards for awhile now. I've seen posts with very few votes one way or another going gold and getting notice.

    Does the body cam footage show George Floyd's dying and then dead body attacking the officer in a parallel dimension not visible in the original video?

      One of the most insidious consequences of the war on drugs is the wirdepread acceptance of the idea that people who appear to be on drugs are enemy combatants.
