Does Jim know who Batman is? And, if he doesn't, does that imply that he's a bad cop?

I think it's let on that he knows but doesn't care. Depends on the writer really.

I like to think that all of Gotham knows and they're just letting him have his fun as thanks for saving so many of them.

I mean really the cost of the Batmobile alone really narrows down the possible candidates to one one hand

He does not know, because he does not care. This has been pretty common for Gordon in a bunch of different stories.

Quoted By:

Batman acts in a mainly criminal capacity as a vigilante, IF Jim Gordan had direct knowledge or reason to believe that any one particular person was Batman, he would be bound by oath and ethics as a law enforcement official to investigate or even arrest that individual as per the law.

You mean to always turn him over to the fallible system of law that Gordon is sworn to uphold? And not cross that line of becoming murderers themselves? Yeah.

Joker( and most of batman's villains) is/are insane, so he does not get the death penalty
Even though he has shown that he knows that what he is doing is morally wrong

You can't execute the legally insane, Arkham is an insane asylum. Plus, I think Gotham is still located in New Jersey, a state that abolished Capital Punishment.

Actually, it does not. In the Modern Age, Gotham City is located in New Jersey, which has no death penalty, and is historically full of mafiosi.

It depends on the story, but it's usually pretty heavily implied he knows. There's a really great example from near the end of No Man's Land, so.

Fuck it, I'm storytiming the issue.

That's up for the state to decide. Gotham may be a major city, but it's "one" city. Not to mention all the chaos that would cause in courts. While the federal government does support capital punishment and crimes at that level would warrant it, he's protected by his insanity.

Or maybe they've seen enough shit to know he'd just come back from the dead?

He suspects him in Year One but I don't remember what happened with that. Or perhaps he accepted that lame alibi about a skiing accident in the Alps and wasn't suspecting him anymore all these years.

The idea is that it represents all the seedy, dangerous, violent happenings that go on during the night in any big city setting. Sort of like film noir and Los Angeles.
