And I don't think I will ever watch it even if they have the actress replaced with Angelina Jolie before she dies -- I have this silly thing called DECENCY. I suggest they look it up.

Exactly! My points EXACTLY! This'll REALLY bake your clam. Apparently in the 24th Century the Federation is on good terms with the Kelvans. That makes me REALLY angry. I think I see red. It seems like they were trying to take "evolved sensibilities" to a ridiculous extreme. A first contact was forged from a crewwoman's death in a senseless and meaningless way. I wonder what her family thought when they realized the Federation was friends with the ones who killed their sister/daughter/cousin/niece and got AWAY WITH IT. gypsycat (author): Exactly! Exactly!

And you're right about the Kelvans: 'Ooh, we can crush a Styrofoam block into powder, we're so big and bad.' They literally got away with murder in that one.

She was killed, was a redshirt, and died the WORST death with NO CONSEQUENCES to the perpetrators! I don't care HOW f*****g "evolved" humanity is, when someone turns a woman who has done you no wrong into a f*****g dust block, crushes it, and gets off CLEAN WITH |||NO||| PUNISHMENT, then you're not "evolved" or even "moral," you're a f*****g p***y who doesn't care ANYTHING for its very LIFEBLOOD! Sorry to rant. I hated that death and that the evil Kelvans got off free. It was unfair to an extreme degree. You're a woman. You agree with me, right? Even though I'm a guy I still see it.........
