Why wouldn't Hank sue Earl for wrongful imprisonment?


I don't care about what's happened by the end of the movie, Hank's still wrongfully lost 6 months of his life in self-enforced solitary confinement because of that @$$hole. Hank didn't beat Earl up, but Earl let Hank get convicted anyway. I hated him from that point on for the rest of the movie, he didn't show a single bit of remorse at any point. And Hank should sue for defamation too.

Exactly.
This movie may have been made entirely for a black audience.

"Exactly.

I agree 100%, but it would be racist to have it the other way around according to most blackfolk.

If I were Hank I would sue Earl for having been involved in this piece of crap of a movie.

It was that bad.

Remember, white people owes black people so much.

And remember, Hank still squeeze the neck of Earl before the bee came along. That's what Earl told at court, and that's what Hank was jailed for.

Suprisingly everyone on this thread is trying to make as it never happened in the movie but bash Earl for "telling lie". He didn't lied. Watch the movie again. Probably all white people trying to bash this movie :P LOL

A more apparent in-justice I find in this movie is the mock at the Black people who says they have been discriminated! This is un-fair because there are actually many real-world people who have been really discriminated! This movie somewhat tries to portrays those people as liars (or at least exaggerators).

Yea, “The cop was just trying to drive the bee away…”

Forget about the racial issues, enjoy the movie!

Before Whitey ever set foot in da muthacountray,blacks were totally ass backward(Or black-ward);they didn't have an alphabet,so they didn't know how to read or write.They didn't know the first thing about farming,to grow their own food,no cures


It's none of the business of "Whiteys". "Whiteys" pirate other people's the land. PERIOD. Nothing more. "Blackys" don't have an alphabet, so what? "Blackys" don't know how to read or write, so what? Who asked "Whiteys" to "help"? Definitely not "Blackys".

Since the 60's,blacks have been hired for jobs,wih no experience whatsover,...


It's called pay-back. "Whiteys" hire them so that they can show others that they are not racist or discriminate. If "Whiteys" were so good and never had disciriminated a single "Blacky" from the start, there's no need for this "pay-back". Hence, no need to favor "Blackys" in the movies. That's why "Whiteys" owes "Blacky" so much. Got it?

For the record, I've only seen in-experienced "Whiteys" getting high-paid jobs. Not blackys, nor Asians, who are by far 100 times educated than those "Whiteys" and are mostly un-employed.

Oh yes, discrimination still exists today! But nobody discriminate "Whiteys" because "Whiteys" are the only majority who promotes discrimination against the colors. Yep, "Whiteys" should be ashamed because they promote discrimination as well as promote human rights at the same time. And believe it or not, human rights only apply to "Whiteys" when they needed. Any other case is treated as if those rights don't exist.

WHITES DON'T OWE BLACKS A _____________ ________________ __________________,_________,______________,THING!!!!!


Hahaha, yes you're right. "Whiteys" don't owe blacks. "Whiteys" owe the world!

No matter how hard you say Blacks are not discriminated (and Whites are the real victims), you don't change my real-world experience.

wow this is getting interesting.You guys should just get off this and say either that Earl is somewhat racist against whites (even though he surprisingly is alwys telling Hank that he wants to be his partner on the case,) or he was mad at Hank for getting mad at him when he was told he was under arrest and just made up a "story".

I didn't want to go here but, before coming to this continent by force. Blacks read and wrote IN THEIR NATIVE LANGUAGE. They were forced to learn another language thus the appearence of lack of intteligence. Reverse it and you could say the same about a european. Actually, blacks showed their intelligence by adapting to the language and circumstances. Blacks were involved in agriculture in their own native land. The slave masters used that skill to their advantage.

Throught history whites have profited off the work, ingenuity and smarts of blacks. Then have taken credit for it. Prior to whites coming in this continant it was a pristine land. Whites came in used stolen knowledge to make WMD. Brought violence and disease into it.(The worst being the disease of self hatred) Pillaged sacred land, destroyed sacred animals. killed and schemed for what they have and without lifting a finger. Their cousins have come in and profited as well.Thus proving how lazy,immoral and unintelligent they are as a whole.

People of color have worked, fought in wars for America, yet weren't even allowed to vote. Whereas others could just waltz in this country and immediatly have that simple right.
Despite these overwhelming odds. people of color have used their smarts,intelligence and morality to strive and continue to do so.
Today.

I have been wondering about that too, I guess Hank was simply a very good-natured person and was willing to forget.
