I have read in the Original Series The Klingons were modeled on the Russians/C*******ts. The Romulans based on an Imperial Rome that never fell. Later TNG brought in the Collective Borg, AI /human hybrids. My favorite ST Series DS9 writers created the Bajorans who were modeled on the Jews and early Christians I have read. Expanded the Ferengi major capitalists in a world with out currency. The Cardassians are also imperialists like all the 19thc colonial powers. Then we can't forget the stormtroopers/Waffen SS based JemHadar and their controllers the Vorta all minions of the Changelings. Finally we can't forget "Q" the Omnipotent, Odin, god and Loki All in one. I have always believed that SciFi writers were the most inventive of all writers.

Lord of the Rings is Not my favorite Fantasy series. Now Game of Thrones is . However the 90yo old living off the grid in his handmade hobbit house is awesome. I am Also A HUGE Trekker(Not Trekkie...I Have A Life) and thoroughly believe in the dream of Gene Roddenberry's Federation, One Earth government and allies of other worlds perhaps one day. A One world government not the apocalypse of armageddon mentioned in the bible. Oh yeah I also spend most weekends with other nerds (A lot of them Arch and Staunch Republicans) Re-enacting the Middle Ages and Renaissance complete w/ costumes, armor,(steel,leather,etc) swords of wood and shields of Aircraft aluminum. Most the Republicans in the organization with me are Vikings. My persona is Scot from the era of Braveheart and the last Crusade....So Stay Woke and be sure to v**e Blue in 24 and Let's ReElect Pres.Biden...4 More years, 4 More Years

A plea deal, orchestrated by prosecutor Thomas Gort, dropped two of the three criminal sexual conduct charges against Shei. All charges will be erased from Shei’s criminal record if he successfully completes his probation, according to the Rochester Post Bulletin. He reportedly agreed to not challenge his certification as an adult in exchange for a stay of adjudication and no prison time.

“There is no moving on or getting over it. I’ve tried,” one of the victims said in court, the Post Bulletin reported.

On at least eight occasions between 2018 and 2019, Shei, who was around 16 years old at the time, sexually assaulted and penetrated a girl who was between 8 and 9 years old, according to a criminal complaint. Shei was the older brother of the victim’s friend, and the incidents happened when the victim came over to play with his sister.

The victim told authorities Shei would express interest in giving her book fair money or buying her toys to coax her into having sex in his bedroom. Shei also told her not to tell anyone about what he did because it “would ruin his life.” On the last occasion, the victim told Shei “no,” but he ignored her.

A second criminal complaint accused Shei of raping a girl more than once between 2017 and 2018 when she was roughly 4 or 5 years old. This victim was also friends with Shei’s younger sister. Like the other victim, Shei would bring her to his bedroom before penetrating her.

Upon investigation, Shei told authorities he knew both girls but denied any sexual contact.

Although Shei will not be required to register as a sex offender, he will have to complete a sex offender program and 200 hours of community service.

Is it any wonder people do not have faith/trust in the legal system?
