    Serial rapist may only serve 9 years

    As law enforcement doesn't prevent rapes, only investigates the wounded who are raped to collect a semen sample, or investigate a murder rape, then maybe it would be wisdom to own a firearm to prevent a rape. But hey, that's just good old common sense. If people feel confident that when...

    "Asian guys in my show? Not gonna happen!"

    From the very beginning by making Glenn a Korean delivery boy. He's not a boy. He's a man, an American man.

    California's Water Crisis

    You asked for ideas. I provided proven practical ones. You as yet have produced no ideas with evidence, examples, or explanation.

    "Asian guys in my show? Not gonna happen!"

    Making zero deal about the ethnicity of the character, and simply telling the story. Is that difficult? Glenn should be no different than any white character. He's just another American trying to make it. Imagine Two Broke Girls, not with some moronic depiction of an Asian-American boss with...

    California's Water Crisis

    I'm waiting for even a single post from you that has practical examples, evidence, and explanation on the California drought. A single post that is more than just opinion.

    "Asian guys in my show? Not gonna happen!"

    No, I've maintained all along, that merely to depict Asian-Americans as normal would be enough. There's no need to hammer home some beneficial aspect each time. That would simply be pandering. For much of the series, Glenn has been the guy to get things from town. He was good at it, and the...

    Serial rapist may only serve 9 years

    There is no possible way to cure serious psychopath rapists. If you know of some miracle rehabilitation, by all means post that information here. Banishment would only isolate them and force them to form their own society. They would be largely responsible for caring for themselves and given...

    California's Water Crisis

    No, I'll just stop bothering to post practical information, Tim. You complain no matter what I do, even when it's of genuine practical use.

    California's Water Crisis

    Thanks. I'm mentioning realistic solutions, not pie-in-the-sky ones. Yes, we need to invest in desalination, particularly graphene as that seems to be the least expensive long term solution, but even then it will be extremely limited. Urbanization and farming land that was never intended for...

    California's Water Crisis

    It's the cost to produce the amounts of desalinated water. It would be difficult to produce enough potable water alone, but to do that AND produce enough for washing would be prohibitive. Each person uses at a minium about a gallon of potable water per day for drinking. The average American...

    California's Water Crisis

    No Tim. Irrigation using desalinated water would result in higher salinity if it were possible. It would be immensely impractical and cost-prohibitive. The only thing desalination could be used for in a practical way would be as a source of potable water. It's doubtful that it could be utilized...

    "Asian guys in my show? Not gonna happen!"

    That's a complex question. The comic book is a strange departure from previous zombie films like Romero's vision. That was truthfully about capitalism and excess, and the American consumer as cannibalizing themselves. Romeo has criticized the show. The show is meeting a middle ground...

    Hannibal tv series-- your view of it?

    That's a spot-on analysis. It's worth watching as a window into the history of cinema. I like Michael Mann's version of Hannibal and the Tooth Fairy.

    "Asian guys in my show? Not gonna happen!"

    Nope, there are quality tv and film projects where the opposite is true. Characters are fully fleshed out. In fact within postmodern serialization, we've seen tv evolve into a medium with long running mytharcs and character development. Having one dimensional caricatures is not the mark of a...
