With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

[ShadowScion626]

I may be misremembering this, but didn't Orange Lantern outright save both Sodom and his friends lives because Sodom's father was trying to kill his friend and Sodom wouldn't let him? And wasn't Sodom offered the ring and chose to leave afterwards?

This women is just on some straight bullshit. How much anyone want to bet she's going to completely disregard Sodoms own angenvy in this by claiming the ring brainwashed him?

Are you talking about the comic version, or this story's version?

In the comic version, he sent police officers. It's not clear whether his country was officially part of India or not, but given the lack of any official protest from the Indian government it seems more likely that they either had a legitimate warrant or were actively persuing a suspect than they just decided to walk over the border and grab someone while wearing a clearly identifiable uniform. Remember, the Justice League were easily able to work out who they were.

The comics.

It is 100% guaranteed that no they have no legal ties to India. He brags about his country having no contact with the outside world. The language of Jarhanpur has been considered dead in the outside world for 5000 years, and Superman described the country as a "complete mystery."

The only reason they were able to find Jarhanpur is because they had the woman from Jarhanpur and they needed a freaking Green Lantern ring to understand her.

And since his thugs only spoke the language of the obvious conclusion is that they were in fact incapable of speaking any language but the language of Jarhanpur. Because "Hand the criminal over!" is an obvious thing to say when from your perspective you are in fact trying to take in a criminal. Which they didn't do. Or at least, not in any language any one there but the boy's mother could understand.

And it being the Amazons fault? Horseshit. The Amazons gave them a verbal warning to leave, then only resorted to violence in self defense when the Jarhanpur thugs ignored their attempts to deescalate and continued their attack on their women's shelter.

And shoot them? They had no guns, the Jarhanpur thugs had swords and knives, and their bandoleers of grenade-like receptacles of Earth Elementals.

Which means that it must have always have been the plan to invade India and murder anyone who got in the way of their kidnapping attempt.

And they didn't do anything to the boy's mother because the Amazons foiled the kidnapping attempt.

So the entire plotline happened because that stupid bitch Rama Khan, being high on his own farts, had people murdered because he was offended that the boy's mother loved her son more than she had loyalty to him.

He had the boy, he had his heir, he had won. That wasn't enough for the asshole. The woman was no threat, she spoke only a language that had been dead outside of Jarhanpur for five thousand years.

The entire storyline began because he had to see a woman punished for disobeying him because his every whim is law and he is infallible. The same stupid arrogance that caused him to offend Jarhanpur at the end of the storyline. So he was an arrogant stupid shit in the beginning, middle, and end.

As for DC ignoring the logical result of Jarhanpur committing what would be perceived as a terrorist attack on Indian soil against Amazons being ignored, well that happened because of comic book writing.
