Blind And Beaten in New York

This kind of stuff decreased during Giuliani. Maybe they need to revisit those policies.

[Mik]

I think that's obvious.

25 years ought to mellow them out.

They're minors - probably get 1-2 years in juvie and be out.

[Mik]

And come out meaner than before. We need to retool the juvenile justice system. These guys are not going to turn their lives around because they've been raised by wolves.

[Horace]

You guys aren’t supposed to talk about this.

America has plenty of degenerates. Every day, there's a story like this. I just saw one where 5 teenage girls killed a 64 year old man for the fun of it. We should consider exporting - there's an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean that is the furthest distance from any habitation - seems like a place to consider for resettlement - that or perhaps they can help with clean up in Gaza.

[Mik]

I could get behind the island. You wanna live like an animal? here ya go. No guards, no rules.

It’s a shame Australia is already taken.

[Mik]

See? Lemons, lemonade.

Sure, it has worked over and over.

[Mik]

There were guards on Nepenthe.

[Copper]

I thought they were more like advisers.

[Horace]

Social workers.

How the hell do I remember the name of that obscure planet this long after the movie came out.

Maybe because it's also the name of a great restaurant at Big Sur.
