Why not just detain Palpatine and provide the evidence to the senate, the three Jedi corpses would be good enough evidence to prove that Palpatine was the sith lord.
Why not just detain Palpatine and provide the evidence to the senate...
What does it matter that he's some made up enemy to a bunch of space wizards?
exactly. they were practicing extralegal murder of the head of state because he had a diferent religion.
> the three Jedi corpses would be good enough evidence to prove that Palpatine was the sith lord.
the corpses would be proof he was a strong leader in wartime, and jedi think they can create power vacuums and depose the government whenever they feel like it because they have glowing swords
they could also show the senate palps lightsaber
So? Possession of a lightsaber was either legal, or a misdemeanor. Especially for a wealthy head of state
Because in Mace Windus eyes the justice system is evil yo
He made Anakin kill Count Dooku when he was defeated. If Dooku was still alive he would have been able to testify that Palpatine was the one that helped create the war to get the sith in power.
>Why not just detain Palpatine
Isn't that what they were trying to do? They were there to arrest him. He resisted and overpowered them. Or am I remembering wrong?
ANAKIN: You can't kill him, Master. He must stand trial.
MACE WlNDU: He has too much control of the Senate and the Courts. He is too dangerous to be kept alive.
PALPATINE: I'm too weak. Don't kill me. Please.
ANAKIN: It is not the Jedi way . . .
MACE raises his sword to kill the CHANCELLOR.
ANAKIN: (continuing) He must live . . .
PALPATINE: Please don't, please don't . . .
ANAKIN: I need him . . .
Mace Windu: In the name of the Galactic Senate of the Republic, you're under arrest, Chancellor.
Supreme Chancellor: Are you threatening me, Master Jedi?
Mace Windu: The senate will decide your fate.
he probably changed his mind after seeing 3 jedi masters being killed in a few seconds
I am the Senate!!!
Mace Windu just wanted him dead and didn't want to risk keeping him alive, because of the Jedi's hate for the Sith (see bullshit lines like "Only the Sith deal in absolutes."). Not saying he didn't have good reasons, but Windu definitely wasn't being honest with his "we HAVE to kill him, it's the only way.." bullshit.
The attempt on my proxy has left me scarred...and deformed...but I assure you, my resolve has never been stronger! Henceforth, Yea Forums shall be reorganized into the First Sneedlactic Empire (formerly Galactchuck) for a based and redpilled board.
Why are you here? You obviously never watched the movie if you think he said that after the masters were killed
It is because he uses a jedi offensive light saber tech that copy's their opponents and uses it against them. He had copied so much of the emperors power at that point that he could not control his emotions and wanted to kill.
Palpatine: I cucked the senate with fascism tho, when I get out your filtered pleb lul
do you think is true the lightsaber has BMF written on it?
>show the senate palps lightsaber
>hey the head of state uses the same weapon we do
>see how EVIL he is?
>In the name of the Galactic Senate of the Republic
palpatine is the head of state with extrajudiciarey powers in war time. the jedi work for him...
purple lightsaber shows he knows both of thwe light and dark side, denzel washington just asked for a purple one because he liked the color
