When someone plants a bomb that will destroy Gotham and Batman defuses and removed the bomb, what has Batman done to the city if you don't think he saved it?

Like, if I save a child from getting hit by a car today is the kid now immortal?

The people usually doing stuff like that are guys he's already caught a thousand times

Then after the bomb threat is gone, Gotham is still a shithole

The people

Whom the police are invariably unable to stop

usually doing stuff like that are guys he's already caught a thousand times

Are you saying we should execute those who are mentally unwell and pose a danger to others?

Then after the bomb threat is gone, Gotham is still a shithole

Gotham's a shit hole and thus doesn't deserve saving?

Yeah. Execute them.

Not like we have any other choice like using nth metal to make more secure facilities.

Oh wait

I forgot

You're taking this entirely too seriously and I'm not arguing over a fictional city with someone who seems to have a lot more invested in this than I do

I have two long boxes of Batman comics. I'll have my fun. You can have your Internet fights.

He didn't defuse it, he just shielded himself under some heavy iron pipes when it went off.

Not quite sure which incident you're talking about but Batman's saved Gotham and the world more than a few times. He mortally wounded Darkseid in the Final Crisis event, stopped a worldwide Joker plague in Endgame (and Gotham city from a similar fate in the 1989 movie) and so on. As a member of the Justice League, I imagine he's saved the universe a good few times too.
