Pippin is a known litter bug look at him dropping the elven broach, also Glorfindel for that matter.

Legolas should be ticketed for not wearing a safety restraint in his vehicle, riding saddle less as could Gandalf

Thranduil lets his pet spiders run wild. He could be charged with...something...

Nerwen · 08-12-2009, 03:25 PM

No, I don't think the spiders are Thranduil's pets; in fact we're told his people kill them without mercy.

-Which brings me to the real change against the Wood-Elves: wanton slaughter of rare (and probably endangered) species!

Isildur and Deagol with petty-theft

Boromir88 · 08-12-2009, 03:48 PM

Ahh, morm, but Isildur had a legal claim to the Ring as weregild...a claim accepted by Elrond et all. But yes Deagol definitely.

Nerwen's got me thinking more about Gandalf again. For it was Gandalf who was responsible for destroying the Balrog...certainly a rare and endangered species.

And advising the youth (Pippin) to kill themselves: "Throw yourself in next time and then you will be no further nuisance."

My name's Halbarad. I'm a ranger. I was working
the day watch out of Tharbad protecting halflings
in the Shire when my men and I were attacked by
nine horsemen in black. Some of my fellow rangers
were killed. The black riders, believed to be agents
of Sauron, a.k.a. the Necromancer, were tried in
absenia. In a moment the results of that trial........

The presiding judge ruled that since Halbarad, the
chief plaintiff, and the black riders (a.k.a. nazgul, a.k.a.
ringwraiths) all died in the War of the Ring they would
be let off with a stiff scolding by Lobelia S-B.

*sigh* I'd like to see this as an isolated incident. But when you throw in:

*Bard killing Smaug (how many dragons were left in Middle-earth by then?)

*The massacre of helpless Wargs by the Fellowship

*Eowyn brutally decapitating one of the near-extinct fell beasts

*The mumakil being shot down at the Pelennor Fields (no doubt their ivory was sold on the black market)

–the conclusion is inescapable: many of these so-called "heroes" should be charged with crimes against nature!
