I’ll write the theory
And I’ll do the praxis
Both the only good troop and cop.
Well I can think of another soldier that made a positive contribution to this world. For example:
In the case of Julius Streicher, reporter Howard K. Smith wrote that the initial drop was not fatal, and that “witnesses could hear him groaning”, upon which “Woods came down from the platform and disappeared behind the black curtain that concealed the dying man. Abruptly the groans ceased and the rope stopped moving. Smith and the other witnesses were convinced that Woods had grabbed Streicher and pulled down hard, strangling him.”
I hanged those ten Nazis … and I am proud of it
If some German thinks he wants to get me, he better make sure he does it with his first shot, because I was raised with a pistol in my hand.
Woods “announced his retirement from being an executioner six days after his wife found out about it”
However, Woods also told reporters that he might return to Germany in some capacity, stating that there were more than 120 war criminals still waiting to be hanged, including 43 sentenced for their part in the Malmedy Massacre. Claiming that he “had some buddies killed in that massacre”, he boasted that he would come back “just to get even for them.”
Really hard to fault somebody for being this excited about killing Nazis
Also Aaron Bushnell
Behind the Bastards (the podcast) had a multi-part look into this hangman. The conclusion seemed to be “Who knows if the Army hired him knowing he was incompetent or if he purposefully incompetent… but the result was a lot of Nazis suffering strangulation instead of the quick neck snap”
(And yes I know BtB’s lead man is the center of some amount of controversy. Most of their strictly historical output is fine though, in my view.)
Ooo, what controversy are you referring to? Point me in a direction if you don’t mind.
Vague accusations of Evans being a fed
(I haven’t seen real evidence of this being true, btw. People accuse Johnny Harris of being a fed- THAT I do believe. Evans though… meh. People should be checking sources anyway and not just believing the framing of podcasters/streamers. Sometimes a person can tell the truth while lying. That’s what Harris does. I haven’t seen this behavior from Evans. I get the feeling it’s mostly just normal online activities by bored people who want to accuse everyone else of doing stuff. Nevertheless the rumors have persisted and it’s hard to comment on him without getting told “wow, didn’t you know he’s…” so I try to pre-empt that)

Can’t corner the Dorner
Remember kids, whenever a copper dies of a heart attack or similar, that’s really Ned Kelly and Chris Dorner getting a few more shots in from the Beautiful Shore!
Who’s the comrade here with his face on the Teletubbies Sun for a PFP again?
I love the Dad from Cory in the House
My favorite anime character, and american

May his spirit never be cornered.
