Did they actually have any legal authority to arrest Sheevy Weevy? Like even if he was a Sith he was still the senate elected chancellor, did the Jedi have any constitutional power to intervene?
>>221245359Do you have any legal authority to make bullshit ass threads?
>>221245359Jedi have the authority to destroy siths>but muh senateDoesn't matter
>>221245359even if it wasn't outright illegal to be a sith (hard to say since its never really addressed in the movie) they would have reasonable suspiscion to arrest him since him being a sith would inevitably means he likely had connections with Count Doku was an enemy leader until Sheeve had him killed which they could easily argue was to help hide his trail, the only mistake they made was not finding a few sympathetic senators first, giving them all the info they had as a back up scenario incase shtf
>>221245359The Jedi were generals and Sheev was a conspirator with the separatists, so they presumably had the authority to arrest even the chancellor for treason.Their mistake was not actually gathering any evidence and presenting it to the Senate BEFORE they tried to take down the Sith Lord that had been playing them for decades.
>>221245386 Are you 10
>What did you think of my new tax policy?
>>221245386Here is my license
If you had a police force that had responsibility for arresting the most powerful forces in the galaxy you'd hope that 99% of them couldn't be killed by a few robots and storm troopers focus firing them like out of all the Jedi there's like 4 guys they have that could fight Dooku or Greivous
>>221245359Real answer is law and order was breaking down.
>>221245504>literally taxed him an arm and a leg
>>221245570>EVERY SINGLE FBI AGENT AND POLICEMAN IS NOW AN ENEMY OF THE PRESIDENT i mean... it's pretty dumb if your system allows this power at any point
They were in the wrong. But also, being given the power (by the senate) to immediately send an army into the temple to murder them all down to the last child is a bit far. Pretty stupid when you think about it, especially with the tech level of the world.
>>221245359They're jurisdiction includes sith lords
>>221245698>Pretty stupid when you think about it, especially with the tech level of the world.No, no, we need instant drone delivery 24/7 for exotic alien centipedes anywhere on Coruscant. Any regulations would strangle the market.
>>221245546Imagine being so deluded that you believe you know what is going through everyone else’s minds during sexual intercourse? For fuck’s sake, it is at least a weekly occurrence that one of my coworkers absolutely baffles me, and we aren’t doing anything that is anywhere near as intimate, private or emotionally charged.
>>221245359What was his crime? Believing in the wrong religion?
>>221246457Extrajudicial thugs and dealings, mixing public business with private trade matters, selling office favors, having small dick syndrome
>>221246636What evidence did the Jedi have of this?
>>221245559They’re all bizarrely hyper-specialised too. Even Yoda and Windu agreed only Obi Wan’s defensive shell could stand up to Grievous. Then Dooku cuts through that shell with precision. Anakin batters right through Dooku’s precise blade work but can’t scratch Obi Wan. Only Yoda and Mace stand a chance against Palpatine, but Yoda couldn’t do in over a full minute to Dooku what Anakin did in about 15 seconds once he got mad. Don’t get me wrong, it’s realistic. Styles make fights and it’s better than power scaling. But Yoda spent almost 900 years training, and the result is a good matchup against both Dooku and Palpatine, but ultimately it doesn’t work in both cases because he lacks stature and mass? Then Mace is winning but he forgets to account for a surprise attack and decisively end things? Both times? The Jedi are so powerful it would be terrifying to be in a cramped space with one like when Vader goes crazy in that corridor, and at the exact same time, they’re so weak they’re near useless on an empty field. A pair of Droideka makes a pair of powerful Jedi flee. About eight clones in a firing line annihilate a council member. Apart from bodyguard or assassin duties, Jedi suck, and any time the end of a movie splits off into more than one conflict, the clash between standing armies and/or navies is the important bit. The Jedi and Sith are just doing their own little Samurai style duels in an otherwise empty room, and it honestly comes across as autistic. >my powers have doubled since the last time we met count, but we’d better fence quickly before this ship, which is in the middle of an active war zone, goes downAnd it would all be forgivable if their “sage, psychic monk” schtick carried any weight, but they’ll go hammer and tongs to rescue the man undermining the republic.
>>221246673This all culminates in the absolute peak of Jedi stupidity, which is Luke scheduling his attempt to redeem his father on the same day that the rebellion plans to destroy the battlestation him and his father are on.Then he has his gay little cuck Samurai Viking funeral alone in the woods because no one else even knew the Emperor was a wizard or cared about it. It was all about bringing down the battle station. Much honour Luke-san. Look, some dead men relevant only to you. I hate the Jedi, and the Sith are no better, they’re just edgy reactionaries who might win for 20 years but then ruin their own Empire because they can’t stop gloating when they’re ahead or building battlestations with glaring weaknesses.
>>221246457Being a straight Nabooian male in current BBY
>>221246696Not the vibe I got from the way he groomed young men
>>221246673> but they’ll go hammer and tongs That’s twice in 3 days I’ve seen that expression,what does it mean?
>>221246673>Yoda couldn’t do in over a full minute to DookuI think the point is he could, but Yoda is teaching Dooku a lesson about how Dooku's so-called new powers aren't all that, and he has much to learn still. Dooku was Yoda's student - Yoda doesn't want to kill him, he wants to redeem him.
>>221246793It basically means to go in aggressively and/or with full force. The American equivalent would be “going ham” (hard as a motherfucker), but I find that distasteful.>>221247014In that case only Annie the slow learner had his head screwed on right. Dooku did need to pay for all the Jedi he’d killed that day, at least, from a Jedi point of view that was devoid of suicidal empathy.>hmmm, embrace my murderous, traitorous old padawan who dresses and acts like dracula I must, but embrace his own mother Skywalker must not.I fucking hate Yoda. He sucks. Little greeb gremlin rat.
>>221245359Yes. Palpatine was also a traitor who was leading the separatists.
