Yeah I remember telling my friends about how this episode is basically the us/Saddam story. The US helped him rise to power, but once the US tried to take what they wanted and Saddam didn't let them, so they vilified him and they accused him of having WMDs that didn't exist to justify the Iraq war. None of my friends even realized that there are so many hidden messages in this show.
not just saddam hussein, the xbox killer is al qaeda, the murder itself s 9/11 and wuncler and rummy are obviously bush and rumsfeld. the shop owner even says "your dad helped me built this store", which refers to Bush senior and company helping saddam hussein to gain power in Iraq back in the 70s and 80s.
@@kenwahler3277 yeah that too. I went into all of that with my friends but didn't really wanna type that much. I'm glad other people see these things and not just take this show as some random comedy. It's crazy how they hide behind patriotism to justify all the violence. I always thought it was funny how back then everyone had these "support out troops" bumper stickers and stuff because people didn't want to seem unpatriotic. I would sometimes wonder how many of these people would have a"support our war" bumper sticker Instead. Of course people are gonna support the troops. But that doesnt mean they support the war and killing of innocent people in their home country over US interest.
hes basically the American public who were kinda pressured tricked forced persuaded to go into war against their better judgement without a plan so fast ...he chose to look past his better logic due to fear of unknown and bias to his kind
i think people forget they were war heroes and thus are trained In combat ..and ed is rich powerful famous cause of his gramps ….of course they can get away with shit
@@BarberShave19 Anytime I see stuff like this on crime dramas, I just can't take it seriously because you have to remember that the police are not the ones who decide whether you will or will not go to jail for something, no matter how big or small it is.
Wrong. Detectives are not legally allowed to make promises in regards to sentencing to a suspect, not regarding confessions or anything. If they do the case can be immediately thrown out. That's why they're always VERY vague and say things like " Well, if you admit this then I'll see what I can do for you " never explicitly saying " You won't go to jail " or " You'll only get 5 years "
The "known unknowns" part had two refrences. pulp fiction. and when reporters were questioning a US official about WMDs the dude really said the weopons are "known unknowns".
this episode is easily the best analogy for the whole al qaeda, bin laden, iraq-war thing. bush and rumsfeld going nuts... on that shop owner(saddam hussein)
It’s sad the cops actually manage to get people sentenced from these kinda tactics. Hell a lawyer with half a brain could easily get that thrown out since it was under duress and the suspect was lead to believe he would get leniency when that was not the case, which is also a violation of their rights and could get him off.
Fair warning to anyone who watches this episode on HBO Max... The Health Inspector is completely uncensored in the shower. Everyone else is pixeled out, but I'm still finna stick to bottled body wash for the rest of my life.
How haven't you guys reacted to True Damage's "Giants" yet!??? True Damage is League of Legends latest group.....the last one was KDA - Popstars, pretty sure you guys reacted to that one! Well True Damage has some amazing verses on it - give it a listen!!!! GIANTS MV: ruclips.net/video/sVZpHFXcFJw/видео.html
9:35 Is both a Pulp Fiction reference and a paraphrasing of Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld's (who "Rummy" gets his name from) infamous "known unknowns" statement on the Iraq war. ruclips.net/video/REWeBzGuzCc/видео.html and of course the robbery is an analogy to Saddam Hussein not actually having the weapons of mass destruction we started the Iraq war for.
9:35is actually two references the first one I'm not too sure about where it's from the second is the one that featured Samual Jackson in the movie in which he said those exact words.
LMFAOOOO this is probably my fav episode Ed and Rummy are funny asf. What they’re doing is since Ed’s family runs a company based on security I think so Ed the ||| does the dirty work by striking fear into neighborhoods like breaking in or attacking people
I promise y'all it isn't always racial profiling an shit. Ed and rummy, yeah noone can deny that was profiling, but the cops that arrested Tom tho, that's just lazy ass law enforcement fam. Someone in the wrong place at the wrong time that fits the description, less work for them to do and less risk for them to take, lazy ass law enforcement.
I dont know why i just noticed the Iraq war metaphor with the store robbery, the owner even resembles Sadam Hussein. Thats hilarious
Yea this show had so many layers to its satire. Really went over some people's heads

the comic is older than the show so its started a little dated but by season 2 they went more original ideas less comic based
When they go the wrong direction and get into a shoot out at the mini mart , that whole scene is supposed to be a metaphor for the War in Iraq
The part where Ed shoots the guy after stealing his chain gets me everytime. lmao
😂😂😂😂
Yeah n run yo s
The part where the cop is like "Wait....I think I see the gun!" always cracks me up 😂😂😂

@@razkable Exactly
freddy aint scarred...fred said bring it on bitch!
@@razkable it's also a metaphor with him being the one who gets hit multiple times in the crossfire
Charlie Murphy and Sam Jackson were the best as Ed and Rummy

"I promise you won't go to jail."
Police coerce false confessions out of so many people with that line.
And far too many of those "confessions" have gotten innocent people spending time behind bars.

The "What" dialogue from Pulp Fiction gets me Everytime 😭😂
Same
The gas station scene is also theorized to be a representation of the Iraq war.

Yea this episode had a ton of references
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 "You're thinking of the Korean shop, north of here."
"I got English muffins and peach jelly."

Peach jelly is so good

P.S. Don't drop the soap ya'll.🧼🤣
this episode is easily the best analogy for the whole al qaeda, bin laden, iraq-war thing.
bush and rumsfeld going nuts... on that shop owner(saddam hussein)
The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence. It actually makes sense
it actually doesn't and it's supposed to be that way...it's literally what Donald Rumsfeld quoted trying to prop up the Iraq war.
Are u stupid? Lol
it do, just cz u don't have evidence don't mean that that's evidence it doesn't exist
Ed and rummy are the fucking best. They always get me

That minimart shootout scene was fire but the hidden messages were even better
Iraq y'all
I’m fact the absence of evidence quote comes straight from Rumsfeld in real life 😂
