Batman's logic

I don't get the no kill rule plenty of historical figures have killed people but are still love as hero and they killed soliders just following order while most comic villians do worse for petty reasons

Because he’s the cashcow and comic books bend over stupidly to go on and on and on. Batman kills all the time in live action and no one cares much. Does anyone care if Wonder Woman kills her villains? I don’t know who they are anyways besides cheetah.

>i won't kill the joker
okay
>i won't break every fucking bone in his body and leave him tied to a hospital bed for the rest of his life
come on now

Because he’s aware he’s not a stable person and he would go off the deep end

No you idiots. The reason why Batman chooses not to kill is because he and Gordon are determined to prove that the system works. If Batman just starts killing criminals he deems as guilty, it completely undermines the judicial system and the order he's trying to maintain. It's not Batman's job to be judge, jury, and executioner. And before I get a bunch of bitching about "well cops can kill in self-defense" well good for them, he's not a cop. Furthermore the "why doesn't Batman kill Joker?" argument falls apart when everyone else had the chance to kill Joker, but didn't. Doctors, police, some rando with a gun, they all had their chance, it's not strictly Batman's responsibility. But he'd never do it though, strictly because of the before mentioned reasons trying to make the system work

The mere fact that batman exists proves the system does not work or is working properly

That's kind of the tragedy of it. Bruce became Batman because Gotham had fallen so far. What became a midnight crusade trying to clean up Gotham and restore the system ultimately just created opposition which changed the game entirely with the introduction of men such as Joker, Scarecrow, or The Riddler. In an effort to stop the wheel, he made it spin faster.

Can Superman really clean up Gotham?

No because Gotham has to want to change. It's a shithole. It'd be like throwing money at the problem, it doesn't work

Every major DC hero has a no-kill rule, why does everyone only focus on Batman?

>No because Gotham has to want to change. It's a shithole. It'd be like throwing money at the problem, it doesn't work
Superman would clean it because he is Superman

>Every politician in the Union was working to abolish slavery, why does everyone only care about Lincoln?
Poster boys, user.

This. Additionally, Batman has a tense, but workable relationship with the cops. The cops look the other way because Batman has the tools to bring in super-criminals they are not equipped to handle. If Batman starts executing people, they have no justification for looking the other way any more.

>I want to stop currently ongoing crimes and not to impose punishments

Joker should have been killed by a firing squad a long time ago, his multiple pleas to insanity to the judicial courts would not work given the fact he has committed multiple accounts of domestic terrorism and other heinous crimes.

>I want to stop currently ongoing crimes and not to impose punishments
You can do both

Maybe. But that's a decision left to the state, not Batman.
Batman doesn't think it's his place to do so. He's only there to assist with super-crime that the police are not equipped to handle.

>You can
Sure. You can also be a real estate salesman. But Bruce doesn't want to. And he also doesn't want to impose punishments. He also doesn't want to dress as a butterfly. He does this thing he wants to do, what's the problem.

the real reason is because if batman killed his villains he wouldn't have any in short order.

fans would get pissy about any new ones created afterwards

>Gotham has to want to change
Well Batman is straight up fear. His whole thing is to terrify criminals. But I think he scares Gotham as a whole. Do something right or Batman will get you. Like a terrorist way of getting the city to behave. Batman is like a belt to a small child spanking the worse you did the harder he spanks. Batman doesn't inspire things to get better only that things won't get worse.

Batman no killing isn't the worst. What really is annoying is that the whole government and populace are clinically retarded. Gotham would be under martial law or federal intervention long, long ago. The city is a cesspool of marauding terrorists and mass murderers. It isn't simply a ridden crime city. Felons that engage in terrorism and mass murder are confined over and over in a municipal asylum. Things that fall under the state and federal jurisdiction are dealt by local, municipal forces and a masked vigilante with issues.

Batman lives in a world where killing splits your soul. Like Harry Potter so he don’t want that, his afterlife is gonna suck, so yeah.

Implying the government wants to help. In fact everyone in power is Lex Luther lite. Plus Gotham is home to the richest criminals in the world. It’s THE crime capital.

Batman even knows this. The top head criminals run the city. The council of owls use Gotham as their base, it’s place where powerful people rule.

>This thread....yet again

Most of Zig Forums loves to blame Batman for 'letting the Joker live' but nobody wants to acknowledge how the government in the DCU is far more responsible and at fault for not keeping him locked up or actually modifying their laws to permit an insane person who has a kill count like the Joker to be executed.

You all need to either let this shit go and accept that the world these characters live in cannot be held to real world standards OR if you do? You need to place blame accordingly.

Batman is principled and doesn't want to stoop to murder, which is fine, and a good part of his conflict as a character. This is a limitation that works fine for him so long as he isn't in a serialized medium that necessitates prisons be so incompetent that no villain can ever stay behind bars.

Batman's no kill policy isn't a because of the law or morals, it's because he knows that once he starts killing he'll never stop. It'll start with the joker and next he'll be killing every petty thug he comes across. It's about keeping his own flaws in check.

Batman understands that he's a batshit insane vigilante using a pathological pursuit of vengeance to punish criminals. He's one no-kill rule from being a redneck with a shotgun. And he doesn't want to be a redneck with a shotgun.

>It’s THE crime capital.
Good, it shall be purged then.

amazing how the ppgs influence even lowered the price of juice by a dollar

ESL stupidity aside, you really think that Batman does what he does simply to be beloved and remembered by history?
