So the stone prison is like equestrias version of the phantom zone from superman?

The thing is that the constitutional safeguards we know wouldn’t be so effective in a world that runs on magic. as Nightmare Moon and King Sombra showed, the only effective answer on the case you presented is someone more powerful fighting them or some magical artifact that can stop them.

@Mildgyth  
And it’s nice you still care about this show I’ve moved on to invader zim now celaeno and capper are the only few things still keeping me here

@Mildgyth  
Listen I don’t want to argue with you it’s December and I just want to let it out ok

@Background Pony #2C32  
Or simply who would stop celestia or now twilight from walking into ponyville killing everyone and burning down the place answer no-one because because the monarch has so much power they can override rights.

@Background Pony #2C32
 
That’s a very shallow intepretation of the French Revolution.
 
And politics in general, because right now you’re ignoring Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Thailand, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Japan, and so on.
 
You also seem to be expecting 21st century North American values from a society that’s very little like the United States.

@DTavs.exe  
All monarchs except Britain’s are no longer around there’s a reason why monarchs abuses their power for their own selfish reasons and are eventually killed for it take king Louie for example he used his entire power for himself and not the poor population out of selfishness and paid the price celestia Luna and that animal hybrid are doing their own thing without proper democratic reason how many villains have appeared because celestia didn’t bother using proper security measures or a proper government or military

@Mildgyth  
Plus isn’t this show a show about friendship isn’t this scene going against that. tempest shadow did the exact same thing as these villains and she got off without any sort of punishment

@Mildgyth  
Two words due process

@DTavs.exe
 
Not all monarchies are absolute, though.
 
@Background Pony #2C32
 
They could (^{_{and should}}) have just killed them instead. better?
 
Seriously, ‘defenceless’ when they were already loudly bragging about how they were going to escape and would never quit trying to kill them, and at the same time acting like they got killed when we got shown multiple times that as long as you don’t get broken into pieces, petrification is completely reversible?

@Background Pony #2C32  
Dude, they had a duarchy, now a monarchy, the rules can be pretty much what the current regent wants.

@DTavs.exe  
Lately I’m still betrayed by this scene I don’t like how the royalty were attacking defenceless enemies and how they didn’t give a damn about how they turned the villains to stone(one of which is a kid by the way) all with what I call pretty evil smiles. don’t they have a proper justice system in equestria?

@DTavs.exe  
I know just adding to the story we know

@Background Pony #2C32  
That’s part of it, the spell was weakening since Celestia and Luna lost their connection with the elements, that bit of disharmony between the CMCs was the trigger for his release.

@PaintEdits  
Discord was released because of the cutie mark crusaders having an argument

not Even a court trial?

@Red-Supernova  

 
Shouldn’t they? Aren’t cracks how Discord broke free?

@Myoozik  
They wouldn’t do anything about the cracks but the graffiti, yes.

Now I wonder how much they pay for someone to have that statue cleaned up of any graffiti and sealing the cracks.

@Background Pony #493A  
And then there’s the Disney villains demise. The most graphical one being Clayton.

Friendship is Magic.

@CaptainGrumpy
 
At least they don’t show up the messy result. On the other hand, while Mufasa didn’t look too battered, they actually showed the corpse.

@Background Pony #493A  
remember when Bambi’s mom fucking died?

@Background Pony #493A  
Not to mention I saw a clip from a cartoon made for kids that literally showed a topless woman… kidnapped by some cave men. I don’t remember the name of the cartoon show, it an old cartoon show by the way.

The you know for kids tag on this image makes me laugh, there were a lot worse things in old Disney movies and they were made for kids.
