what makes me laugh so hard about the joker 'dilemma' of whether he should be killed or not is that... I don't think a single person in Gotham besides Bruce would be even bothered if some gothamite woke up one day and killed the clown on a street corner. they might even throw a party.
and yet this is the issue that tore him and Jason's relationship off it's fuckin hinges
#well part of the issue is that BRUCE won't kill the joker FOR Jason#that's the abandonment issues aspect of it all#but the overall ethical dilemma? there really isn't much of one that anyone can truly justify#is killing someone on the street ethical? no#if they're a known mass child murderer who keeps escaping prison?? most people would turn a blind eye is all I'm saying#like would Bruce be mad if Wonder woman swooped in and killed the clown??#forever lost on why he didn't just let Jason kill Joker in the batarang confrontation#I ain't pro-murder or even death penalty necessarily... but bitch this shit has reached a POINT#joker dc#joker hate#joker#batman#Jason todd#batfam#dc comics#I'm just saying
