Gruber was part of a mainly peaceful protest against the Nakatomi Corporation, which was goaded into violence by the actions of McClane.

I liked the one about Jordan Peterson hosting lobster fights because sports are cancelled better, but maybe that’s just me.

Hans was an immigrant. Mic drop … But, it gets worse:

  1. Gruber’s brother, Simon, was so torn by grief he was driven to a life of crime and revenge against the same white police officer, who eventually killed HIM, too. How much damage will one rogue, white cop do?
  2. The white wife of the murderous police officer ASSAULTED a member of the press immediately after Gruber’s murder.
  3. Eyewitnesses report McClane shouted an obscenity at Gruber (a German immigrant) as he fell to his death, after being dropped out the window. How many more immigrants will suffer at the hands of white police?
  4. Gruber himself denied any criminal intent to Joseph Takagi, the senior Nakatomi executive present during the protest, “Who said we were terrorists?”

The movie’s producer is Jeb Stuart, who we all know was also a Confederate cavalry general who worked with Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee. (hey, if we’re going to do guilt by association, let’s go for it!)
