So with Batgirl on everyone's minds, this seemed like a good time to ask... we've all heard the "why doesn't Batman kill/rape the Joker? threads, and I think whether we like it or not, we all know the reasons why he doesn't...


...but would Barbara just straight-up shoot the Joker?

She was raised by a cop who has no moral compunctions about carrying a gun, she has no traumatic memory associated with witnessing a murder - she DOES, however, have a traumatic memory associated with letting her guard down around the Joker for a second, and probably wouldn't wanna make that mistake again...

TL,DR: where does Babs actually fall on the whole "No guns, no killing" rule? I understand she's her daddy's girl and probably wouldn't want to go full-vigilante ala Punisher, but it feels like she wouldn't be opposed to using them as a last resort either.

>Throwing a loaded gun
Not smart.

I'd say she's probably less likely to shoot the Joker than some random badguy, because she feels even more strongly than Batman that if they kill the Joker, he wins.

She had a confrontation with the Joker in Birds of Prey, and my memory is a bit wonky but I do think she had a shot at killing him, but didn't.

>if they kill the Joker, he wins.

no he doesn't and don't give that "someone worse would come along" crap that snyder gave

A) I'm not
B)I'm talking about how they feel. I don't necessarily agree.

Better question: why doesn't the state/city/whoever just execute the Joker.
I know that one golden age comic where he used a loophole, but why blame the vigilantes if the actual government isn't willing to do it either?
>>
>>91167693
The people of Gotham know that as soon as the state allowed the death penalty the bad guys would burn the city to the ground before letting the police take them in.
>>
>>91167201
What's so hard to understand in the idea that killing somebody, whatever this person did, is a crime. Only the justice in countries with the death penalty can take that decision.
A superhero who becomes a criminal because of criminals loses.

Ever since post-Crisis, Gotham City has been located in New Jersey, where there is no death penalty.
>>
>>91167693
Why do you think that would matter? He would just break out of jail even after being sentenced to death.

This is the dumbest thing that gets brought up all the time.
>>
>>91169213
Yeah, it's not like death row inmates don't go years, even DECADES before their executions.
>>
>>91165669
OR.
Hear me out.
Batgirl could rape the Joker.
You know, for revenge.
>>
>>91169895
With, like, a strap-on?

Or would she get Zatanna to magic her up a dick? Would she turn into a futa specifically to rape the Joker?
>>
>>91167955
the problem with batman's no kill rule is that they progressively make his villain's worse to the point where batman is inadvertently killing more people by not killing them.
>>
>>91167933
so? let them. better to die than to suffer a papercut every minute for the rest of your life.
>>
>>91170729
the no-kill rule has always been something he does in order for his vigilantism to be tolerated. he believes that this one compromise makes it possible to fight more crime and accomplish more justice overall, whereas if he executed the murderous criminals without a trial, he would only be able to do it for a year or two before he was taken down. It's like keeping something really bad illegal by allowing a single instance where it's legal, because so many desperate people want to do it anyway.
babs is jim's daughter, so she wouldn't wanna go against his wishes either, and surely bruce explained that little arrangement to her. however.. if there was nobody around to see it, I think she'd "i don't have to save you" the confirmed murderers

>implying that Bats couldn't secretively kill the Joker (or any other criminal) and disappear the corpse down a hole somewhere (or even just over the cliff in the Batcave)

>>
>>91167955
>killing somebody, whatever this person did, is a crime

Trolling?

There are literal laws about when you can kill someone legally. You can certainly argue the morality of it, but there are many cases where it's straight up legal.

Why don't they just cripple the Joker?

He really should be so spry after so many ass beatings. How is a 30+ year old guy that's been manhandled again and again by Batman able to go to the bathroom without help let alone be a threat?

Why is it always "Why doesn't he kill the Joker" like the only options are murder and Arkham?

Outside of the obvious reality that the only reason villains dont die is so they can keep selling comics, idk why all the blame is placed on Batman.

How has no one else in the entire city decided to do something about it. Why not the guardians? Joker is unpredictable enough to mess with Ras, Vandal Savage, Luthor, etc. they all have a reason to want him gone.

>Why not the guardians

Here's a better question: Why didn't the Court of Owls kill him years ago? He's just as much a threat to them as Batman.
>>
Batman doesn't kill the Joker because the Joker scares the shit out of criminals just as much as Batman does, probably even more because Batman will just send you to jail if you commit a crime. Joker? Step anywhere near his vicinity, and he'll kill you, just because he thinks your death would be funny. Any Gothamite with a modicum of sense would rather stay at home than get themselves involved in Gotham's seedy underbelly where the Joker could pop out of nowhere.
