>killing a man who apparently did nothing wrong because he

L is just as fucked up for using Tailor as a pawn. Doesn't matter if he was on death row. He's no better than Light.

If Light had stuck with his "moral" crusade, it wouldn't have worked anyway, so not really.

>>157269312
If light were even slightly intelligent, he would have never gotten caught.

>>157269422
It's not his intelligence, it's his shitty personality. Once you start using it for your own convenience, it starts becoming incredibly obvious.

No. For Tailor it's a win-win situation (if Kira doesn't kill him, he's out, if Kira kills him it's fast). That's why he cooperated.

>>157269527
Yeah, he could have gotten away with it if he wasn't such an arrogant prick.

>>157269885
If he just killed criminals featured in the news and never responded to L's provocation, it would have been absolutely impossible to ever figure it out.

>>157270096
The worst part was telling L he was involved with the police. The number of suspects went down from like 5 millions to 50.

>>157270096
That would be inconsistent with his god complex character imo.
Throughout the history there were always people who provoke/taunt gods/deities and subsequently got their asses handed back to them.

Light is literally a psychotic serial killer. You think he'd be willing to let someone mock him on TV? He has the same failings as any psychotic or mentally ill serial killer, he's prideful

>>157270510
Well, yeah. That's the whole point. Either way, it undermines his own twisted morality he started with, and he's not an actual god. I just think he screwed himself the very second he tried to kill L.

The one thing I did like about what he was saying right then is that he's completely right about the internet. Considering the Ebola generals we had, /pol/ would definitely be cheering on Kira if he were real.
