LOS ANGELES, CA—A huge crowd turned out Sunday for the Hans Gruber memorial service. Gruber was the victim of police violence, having been thrown from Nakatomi Plaza by police officer John McClane, which many consider one of the most excessive uses of force ever witnessed. After the incident, there were protests all week, and now thousands from all over the country came to pay respects to Gruber, widely described as an “intelligent and witty soul.”
That man was a hero,” said Doyle Graham, who traveled from Nevada to pay respects. “I mean, I don’t really know much about him other than that some police officer killed him, but he seems like someone we should all honor and emulate.”
Gruber was part of a mainly peaceful protest against the Nakatomi Corporation, which was goaded into violence by the actions of McClane. Ultimately, McClane threw Gruber from the 30th floor, even though Gruber was completely unarmed (or at least he was when he hit the ground). Even LAPD Deputy Chief Dwayne T. Robinson denounced the actions, calling McClane a “nutcase” who should have “just stayed put.”
Many at the memorial are now wearing shirts with “Gruber” written on them to remember the man who was taken too soon thanks to unaccountable police actions. There are calls for the arrest of John McClane, including from Hans Gruber’s brother, Simon, who vows to do something about him.

I’m surprised no-one is rioting over the two witches who were killed in “The Wizard of Oz,” or all the orcs, trolls, goblins, etc. that were offed in the Tolkien movies.
Welcome to the party, pal!
Welcome to the party, pal.
Yes, well, that incident was a tad sketchy.
Ahh yes! The Christmas season is almost upon us.

It’s not the start of the Christmas season until Has Gruber gets dropped from Nakatomi Plaza.
You ask for miracles, I give you the FBI.
The McLaurys and Clantons were pillars of the community....
Ehhhhh...not really. I’m not sure that community had any pillars.
But what it did have was two different factions claiming to be “the law”
LOL.

Geez...This whole thing was a joke...
I still can, but just barely...
I gotta tell you, I love satire as much as the rest, but printing headlines like this triggers the morons out there to a fevered pitch. Maybe we should slow down awhile at least till the election is over. I'm sure the twitter verse is buzzing with this story right now. You could easily see 500 show up to protests Grubber's murder.
Lordy I do love The Bee
I raised my som poorly.
Not only is this my second favorite Christmas movie, but my son fell for the article ‘hook line and sinker’. He was upset that a police officer would do that to a peaceful protestor.
Dad jokes can be so much fun.
