Why Batman Lets The Joker Live 🤨

Then joker wins physiologically, jokers whole point to prove everyone has a breaking point and wants to break Batman

The real question is, WHY THE FUCK DOESN'T THE CITY PUT HIM ON THE CHAIR!? I doubt most ppl in Gotham wouldn't mind Joker being dead

Alfred needs to get on this shit since he doesn't subscribe to such niceties. 😭

I’ve never understood why people blame Batman for not killing the Joker instead of the judicial system

Arkham Origins Batman said it best. He is the fear that everyone even Joker fears when they have think twice every time.

It’s because if Batman slips up and decides to kill The Joker why stop there? Almost all his rogues are genocidal maniacs so might as well off them too and at that point he becomes a criminal, the very thing he set out to stop. With the type of city Gotham is killing The Joker also wouldn’t do much in the long run. Another villain would just take his place. Not killing him and the blood on Joker’s hands isn’t Batman’s fault either. It’s on the judicial system for not giving Joker the electric chair.

stick to science shit ngl

If Batman kills then he wouldnt be different from the criminals he is trying to catch. That also makes him a criminal Yagami Light also had the same logic. He kills criminals so more people would be saved. But he also killed innocents to keep his identity to keep doing what does

There is an exact story when bruce follows this logic to its logical endpoint, and it being a police state where he is a judge jury and executioner killing way more people then just 1 person.

You're asking a man to kill another man, let's just let that sink in for a moment. Secondly, why are people blaming Batman for Joker escaping or even still being alive? They should be complaining about Gotham's shitty prisons or why they didn't give him the chair.

Man actively being worse than the guy who shot his parents by not killing his villains. His ways would be justified if he could rehabilitate them at least, but not even that man... not even that

I feel like everyone forgets that the real problem in this equation is gotham. You're telling me NO cop, NO jury, No judge, No NOBODY?? Is willing you just shoot joker while they have the chance. Joker has killed thousands and in some stories MILLIONS of people and yet in the WHOLE of Gotham city there isn't one judge who won't just give him the electric chair. One cop who's sick of seeing people die? One random citizen? One other inmate? Blame batman all you want for letting him live, but the people of Gotham as a whole have WAY more opportunities not to and most don't have an insanely strict moral code stopping them.

Literally anyone in the marvel time can trash Batman Bro is just to weak

Batman is psychologically compromised and killing the Joker would turn Batman into an even worse villain. The problem is why the Joker hasn't been executed by the authorities. Insanity plea only works in real life because the criminal doesn't break out every other week.

I get wanting to give people the chance to change and better themselves but Joker has been doing this shit for years, he ain't gonna change just kill him already

Technically, Batman shouldn't save Joker from a long fall. It's gravity that will kill him, not Batman.

the reason batman's no kill rule doesn't work is because most of his villains are all past the point of no return which means that he can't keep them alive without endangering innocents spiderman's no kill rule works because he actually keeps the town safe

“Listen Joker. You may have blown up a hospital with multiple people inside and used god-like power to eat the population of china “as a joke” but I’ll let you off with a warning. Just don’t do it again ok?”

Joker blew up Metropolis, killing over 11 million people. But Batman won't do shit about it.

its the same reason these guys dont kill, idk why this is a batman only convo

Maybe if law enforcement and the courts did their job then where wouldn't be a batman or joker in the first place

People dont understand that this is what Joker WANTS. Joker WANTS Batman to break his code because of him. In the end the Joker still would have won

Joker survives because he’s Batman’s most popular villain. If Gotham functioned realistically, Joker would have been executed, permanently imprisoned, or shot by another criminal, police officer, soldier, or victim decades ago. Batman isn’t the only person in Gotham with a gun

yall some idiots. its not just about the principle of not stopping to joker or any other killer's level. batman also values all human life very strongly.

Batman is a comic book character for kids. Obviously you can't make a hero become a mass murderer even if the reason is logical.

the real reason why batman can’t kill joker because if he died the batman comic sells would go down

batmans code to never kill is something more on the lines of a Psychological issue, he believes he can do whatever is needed but never to kill its his biggest flaw

35 seconds of plastic men yapping just to say ‘muh no kill rule’ while the Joker body count rises. Touch grass king, your action figures are embarrassed. 😂

And to add to this, why are we acting like killing these people is Bruce’s responsibility? You people DO realize law enforcement exists in Gotham, yes? The same legal system that lets these criminals be locked up instead of giving a death sentence. They are just as responsible for letting the criminals run through the streets if not more so. I’d say more so because they have the legal authority to kill these bastards but choose actively not to. This is also proven to be the case because Metropolis has the death penalty in their town and look how much safer Superman’s side of town is.
