What justification did Leonidas have for killing the messenger? Are the audience supposed to think this was badass and identify with this behaviour?

Based and checked
He was openly disrespecting the king, queen and country, aka being a nigger
He should have sent back the messenger's severed head.
THIS
DEVILISHLY BASED
>messenger
He relayed the message and was about to get safely escorted out of the city, at which point he began making arrogant claims and trying to emasculate Leonidas.
the movie opens with a pile of childrens skulls
no you're not supposed to identify with the baby murderers

the messenger did LITERALLY NOTHING wrong just trying to do his dayjob and gets KILLED for it and his family will NEVER see him again
NO MAN, PERSIAN OR GREEK, THREATENS A MESSENGER
At least 300 was progressive enough to depict the real race of the Persian Aryans.
He knew the risks. Didn't need to poke Leonidas.
DOCTORE!
came here to post this but of course it's already fpbp'ed
"diplomatic immunity" didn't give you a license to be a cunt back in the day, compared to now.
He asked for it.
messengers had rules on how they were supposed to behave especially when talking to a king. He delivered the message to xeses anyway he did not need to be alive
Because this is SPARTA
Can't argue with based satan
the reason why he was killed was that being a bad guest back then was considered worse than killing someone. Though killing him was not good hospitality, he wasn't seen as wrong since the messenger was rude first.
This, plus the fact that what they mention in the movie about the Athenians already refusing them is technically true. The Athenians, if I am remembering correctly, tried the emissaries in a kangaroo court and then buried them alive, if they wanted earth they could dig it up themselves. Or something to that effect anyway.
Alpha male logic isnt make sense
Persians are fucking white. Why would they send a black guy lol

Come to think of it, why are the Persians niggers in 300? I watched the movie when i was like 10 so i thought they were some African niggers but i have since been to Iran and it's pretty cool. People are fairly light.
fpbp
As a Greek I can testify that we absolutely hate niggers and we view Leonidas's action as perfectly justifiable. He was simply doing his part for the genepool.
I mean it's ham-fisted and cringy but it's hardly wrong.
He did it for the bad pussy
He was disposable
Actually, this happened IRL, and the Spartans felt bad about it and sent two of their own to the Persians to be killed to make up for it. The Persians didn't kill them.
stfu w*iteboi
If a war with Iran happens because of the sanctions, it will be so cringeworthy seeing American soldiers pretending to be Spartans and shit, mostly thanks to this movie.
pretty sure the movie adds the line about leonidas saying to them before you speak know that you will be responsible for your words so that the modern day audience who is used to geneva convention understands
He was a house nigger
All the "men" thought it was "badass" and wo"men" thought it was justified because that's what the asinine wife wanted.
and Leo a cunt, satan.
They were whiter than the Greeks retard, read some history. Do not compare them with modern Iranians who got Arabed super hard by that child molesting goat fucker and his goons.
Hmmm could it be that the greeks were actually barbarians while the persians were a civilized people? Nevermind I spoke out of turn
Did the Persians have justification for declaring war on Sparta? What was their Casus Belli?
>the reason why he was killed was that being a bad guest back then was considered worse than killing someone
and here I thought people's priorities were off for thinking rape and off'ing animals are as bad as murder and torture.
As long as it's the ones of European decent I don't see an issue. Sure they are not Spartans or even Greeks, but they are still men of the West and hanging on to heroes of the past is an integral part of a group. Seriously, nothing wrong with it.
because they knew he would get killed
She needs to close her fucking mouth
if a guest behaves rudely then it is 100% justifiable to kill them, even now
I bet you wear shoes inside you fucking animal
Based mods. Fuck racism.

I mean, I didn't say you wouldn't be fighting for the Jews. But in what scenario are you not? Might as well mantle the heroes of old while doing it, it's not like you are ridding off the parasites any time soon.
mods can't hold him down
Holy fuck that vid is still funny to this day. Is the guy in the orange Johnny fender?
I see Yea Forums(nel) is getting worse and worse.
I wonder what the breaking point for this site will be?
Is this picture implying whites caused the schism of Islam or just randomly attributing thing whites and arabs did to jews?
WE
Because he was a nigger
is 300 on the list of kinographic experiences that females simply cannot understand?
bet you also shitpost about breathing through your mouth
if it wasn't that new zealand, ehm, event, then, idk what will
So you be sayin...

The Persians already had a history of taking over Greek settlements, so the Spartans would be familiar with the actual intent of the message, which was:
"Be our bitch or we'll make you our bitch."
The Spartan called them on their bullshit, and no Persian military force ever set foot on Spartan land.
That and he was a nigger.
It was to show that Spartans were violent psychopaths who agitated for war for a new supply of young boys to pederast around with

I love you guys sooooo much.

It's disgraceful to those heroes to ape them while serving as jew slaves.
THIS
Absolutely based.

He brought the crowns and heads
of conquered kings to his city steps. He insulted his queen. He threatened his people
with slavery and death.
Oh, he chose his words carefully,
OP. Perhaps you should have done the same.
It was also a different king that did it to the Spartans.
>the Greeks
No such thing at the time. The city of Sparta however was know for being asshats. Just as Athens was known for being pretentious boy lovers.
>No such thing at the time.
Bullshit. "The Greeks" were a common people that had individual city states, but they shared much of the same culture.
Boipussy is amazing, I dont blame them
>the greeks were actually barbarians
Can't really say for the whole bunch since each city-state was independent and had rather different cultures.
But the Spartans certainly were. They had loads of slaves and the women had less rights than Persians, so it makes movie-Leonidas' speeches about freedom and the messenger's offense towards his wife kinda ironic.
