Wasn't the boyfriend holding what looked to be a sniper's rifle in the last episode while contemplating what to do. And if his target was indeed Kane, and he was some distance away, then it's not a surprise he would miss, right? It's essentially firing randomly into a crowd if you don't know what you're doing.

I was thinking that too after seeing this in the preview last week, but remember Kane's condition makes him see things so that could be a hallucination of his

No mention of the ending, in which Meredith asks Kane if he had her shot? He denies it, but of course you have to think it is a possibility. The show did a decent enough job last week setting up the drug dealers as wanting to shoot Kane that you assume they were behind this, but when Meredith asks that you realize…

The correlation between abortion and lower crime rates is one of the key arguments in the book and film versions of Freakonomics.

I wasn't trying to make an equivalency between varied sides in the
abortion debate, but rather critique Sorkin's handling of it, in the
sense that what he thinks might be a clever spin on the issue might
actually also imply the exact opposite of what he intends. In other
words, that perhaps he didn't think things…

The South Park guys waded into this territory on That's My Bush, with a pro-life character whose origin was that he was an aborted fetus who lived (he was portrayed as a grotesque puppet):

I'll have to rewatch the scene. I got the impression more that Will was trying to distance himself from the comment rather than rebut anything she said.

At first I wasn't quite sure why Lisa was making the abortion point. Ultimately she was trying to make a point about a society forcing babies on irresponsible people or something like that. But you could just as easily use the exact same reasoning to ponder why many of the people who are outraged about the death of a…

It's obviousness made it amusing. Like a nice slapstick gag in the middle of all the faux intellectualism to let you know there's no real reason to take any of this seriously.
