Justice

This is a darkly humorous, satirical comic strip (in Spanish, from the channel “Historietas+” or similar) that flips the usual “defenseless animal vs. reckless human driver” trope on its head to make a brutal point about double standards in justice and victimhood.

### Story summary panel by panel:

1. A thuggish-looking anthropomorphic bird (wearing sunglasses, gold chain, punk crest, tank top) is driving way too fast in a residential 30 km/h zone, blasting music, completely carefree.
2. A little human girl runs into the street (chasing a ball or something).
3. The bird doesn’t even slow down and runs her over.
4. The bird then gets out, beats the injured/possibly dying girl some more, and even jumps on the car hood to crush her further.
5. Close-up of the bird looking down coldly at the phone/camera recording him.
6. Cut to the bird’s human father crying and hugging a photo of his (now dead) daughter, with the caption:
“LA LEY ES INJUSTA… EL CASTIGO FUE JUSTO.”
(“The law is unfair… the punishment was just.”)
7. Splash of blood (implying the bird was violently killed in revenge).
8. The bird’s parents (anthropomorphic birds) are now celebrating and cheering in the street.
9–10. Flashback: the same bird, on a later occasion, flies straight into an airplane propeller and gets shredded to pieces.
11. The little girl (now grown up or her sister?) happily running across the same zebra crossing while the human parents cheer from the house.
12–13. More splashes of blood and gore.
14. A deranged squirrel (wearing a headband like a kamikaze) deliberately rams the bird again with another vehicle.
15–16. Newspapers proudly announce: “The court acquitted the accused of manslaughter” (showing the human celebrating with the squirrel).
17. The bird comes back a third time, still driving recklessly; the human in the car behind him is now terrified because he knows what’s coming.
18. The bird flips him off, completely unaware.
19. The human is sweating bullets reading the newspaper about the previous acquittals.
20. Final panel: the bird, yet again, gets messily killed (this time by an airplane propeller again).

### The core joke / message:
It’s a deliberate role-reversal parody.
In real life we constantly see stories of:

– A driver accidentally or negligently kills a pet or wild animal → almost never faces serious punishment.
– A driver kills a child → often gets a light sentence or is acquitted on technicalities, and people rage about “injustice.”

The comic flips the species: now the reckless, murderous driver is an animal and the victims are human children. Every time the bird kills a human child and walks free (or gets acquitted), the humans eventually take vigilante justice… and society cheers.

So the punchline is savage irony:
When animals kill humans and get away with it → humans think “the law is unfair, the (vigilante) punishment was just.”
And the cycle of revenge keeps repeating with escalating gore.

It’s black humor criticizing both mob justice and the perceived double standard in how society values human vs. animal life, wrapped in absurd, over-the-top violence typical of certain Latin American webcomics.
