Let’s not forget that the only reason the Three-Fifths Compromise was struck was due to the fact that the Southern States insisted that even though slaves were less than human and could neither hold property of their own nor vote in an election, they should still count as population when it came to apportioning…

Before there was Mad Max ...

They’ve already done that. With a good writer, director and cast, maybe they can try to repair some of that damage. If they can’t really do it justice, though, I’m with you ... just leave it alone.

The fact that his Prequels origin was so bad is exactly why we need a film to build the character back up to the epic levels of badassery he deserves. What else happened to him in between being “Boba the Orphan” and being considered the Most feared Bounty Hunter in the Galaxy? Nothing we’ve seen on screen so far…

Yeah! Why haven’t we started wearing collar-balls, already?!?

What is love?

Actually, he did it to check for any walkers in the surrounding area, so he could dispatch them before leaving. (According Lennie James on The Talking Dead, immediately afterward.)

Also, a balloon, like the thin veneer of civilization they are trying to preserve, is Fragile. (And now we're back to a Nine Inch Nails reference!)

I don't think she had much choice. Rick may have been right in what he was saying, in essence, but he was not making his case well, and was endangering the whole group. It *had* to be one of them that shut him up—not one of the Alexandrians, so she did what needed to be done.

I think it's mostly a symbol of how idyllic the Alexandrians' existence has been. These people still have balloons and the helium with which to fill them? They have clearly not experienced any of the real horrors this world has to offer.

That's exactly how I took it, as well. It was more of a "I don't want to hear it, because no matter how bad he may have had it at some point in the past, nothing excuses spousal and/or child abuse."

SO. MUCH. THIS.

Or rather "nail" him up, as the case may be. >_<

Actually, Pilate was the Prefect of Judea during the time when Jesus was supposed to have been crucified. The Emperor at that time would have been Tiberius.

Not to mention—and I know I'm going to be "crucified" for this (sorry!)—that there is no reliable historical evidence that he even existed. I suspect there probably was a living person at root, but that so many and various stories and legends built up around him that what we "know" of him now is mostly just fairy…

They're the same song. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daisy_Bel…

You would have, had you been alive in 1915. I'm talking about this in a historical sense. I'm not talking about anyone's comments here.

The Germans stopped ships, too, initially. But when the Allies started arming merchant ships, and when the US began smuggling munitions in passenger liners and the like, the Germans declared unrestricted submarine warfare. It was pretty clear that despite US claims of neutrality, we heavily favored the Allies.

I'm talking about this historically. Where did Britain or the US get off bitching about Germany's attempted blockade, when the Allies had been doing it to Germany all along.?
