#captain raymond holt #ending homophobia like nobody’s business 

ok but the context here is amazing!

holt and jake stage a fight. when the cop just stands there, they escalate it to force the policeman to break it up. the cop just cheers them on. so jake gets the amazing idea for this rly awkward kiss. THATS when the cop who didn’t give a crap about two prisoners beating each other bloody, got all upset and rushes in there to separate them.

this scene felt wayy too plausible. it’s comedic commentary on a culture that doesn’t care what two men do to one another (we’ll cheer them on even) long as it’s violent. We think brutal death is totally appropriate for kids movies, but two boy’s holding hands?? inadmissible. girl’s falling in love? unsupportable.
