I count 2, plus four counts of murder.
I mean, they asked for it. I wouldn’t call it murder. She might have a really good case of self defense.
Are you defending the KKK..? We’re all joking here, but the joke of the meme itself is that she shot KKK members. Do you know their history of racism and lynching black Americans? If you are supporting white supremacy so much so that you’re riding around in their klan outfit? Eh…
That’s like claiming to be part of the Nazi party in Germany, you’re going to get what you Fucking deserve and I doubt anyone would bat a fucking eye at whatever you got for your Nazi beliefs.
I think the joke here was that, like jimbob in the gif, Daphne wasn't actually being attacked the Klanners at the time. The 'its coming right for me' is being used to justify killing the target(s), the ram(?) in jimbob's case, the Klanners in Daphne.
Also like Jimbob, no crime was depicted in either image, only justified self defense as would be recognized by a jury of their peers.
EDIT: Jimbo not jimbob lmao
The jimbob gif isn’t an accurate comparison is what I’m saying. Klanners aren’t an animal doing animal things to defend itself from something it’s limited intelligence designated as a threat, or it just wildly flexed and jimbob freaked and attacked. The jimbob gif would be better compared to the police* officers jumping out of their patrol car and unloading their full magazines… after an acorn struck their vehicle.
My comment was she would probably be able to articulate a self defense claim against the klanners… because they’re actively trying to strip human rights from people and/or outright murder them. And, they have the intelligence of a man rather than some random animal.
I think you may not have the context from that gif. The animal wasn't actually coming right for them, or doing anything other than standing there, it's just being used as a thinly veiled justification to open fire. This is a clip from another part of that episode with the context explained to the kids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTrMBI5fvfA
I didn’t even realize it was KKK. I thought it was just a dark joke about how the ghosts always being bandits in disguise in the cartoon.
Most often rounded hooded ghost costumes are ghosts. Pointed are klanners.
Quite a story you interpret into that short gif.
Whoa, not defending. Just making snarky comments.
They were ghosts, you can't kill someone who's already dead
