^ I'm sure the civilian colonists were trying to do the same thing even as the Gorn murdered them.

Hopefully the Federation researches the neighborhood better before plopping down a colony next time.

Depends on who's holding the bigger laser cannon.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Why not? This is a message board... it's suppose to be entertaining.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

^ I'm sure it is. But it really *will* come down to who has the bigger guns. As it has always done.
