Batman ALWAYS Has A Plan

First panel:
A bruised and bloody Joker says to Batman:
You can beat me up all you want, but face it, Batsy...
This wouldn't end until you kill me. And you won't do it!
Second panel:
Batman: It's true...I won't killy.
Third panel: Batman is holding a cell phone that's calling 911
...but that doesn't mean I'm out of options
Fourth panel: Batman is holding the phone to his ear: Yes, my...friend is having a mental health crisis. He's ast he abandoned amusement park off State Highway 15. Oh, by all means, send lots of cops! the trigger-happier the better!
Joker looks shocked and horrified.
‘Oh, and if you go to the Iceberg Lounge, you’ll find that Penguin is off his meds.”

Fortunately for Joker, the GCPD didn’t shoot him because he’s a white guy. The whitest guy.

This is, of course, a serious issue, and we really do need to find a way to deal with mental health issues that doesn’t involve a bunch of people amped up on fear and their own warrior mythology showing up with guns.
