As mentioned elsewhere it's a line from a TV show. I'm not going to try to determine what type of humor it is, but the joke is that an incredibly charismatic psychopath has been trying to kill Bart, the local troublemaking kid. The psycho is claiming it's all a misunderstanding and the kid points to him having a tattoo that says "die bart die", which is explained as being German for "the bart the" (and yes part of the joke is likely that the German is incorrect). The cops, who the show routinely depicts as incredibly stupid, believe it and add the line "nobody who speaks German could be evil" which is meant to be a further joke about how stupid these cops are.
