I don't have to watch it again I can see it in my mind. Palance was a great actor and that was one of his best parts.

The movie Shane is really totally unfit as an analogy for the Zimmerman/Martin incident. There was no law there. Ownership of property was in dispute as was the reality in the west in many places. There was an active dispute, or war, going on and everybody knew who was on what side. Those things made the backdrop and the framework for the whole drama of Shane and none of them exist in the events surrounding Zimmerman/Martin.

I recommend a rubber room some Xanax and a cup of chamomile tea for Prof. McGrath.

“I recommend a rubber room some Xanax and a cup of chamomile tea for Prof. McGrath.”

“David McGrath is an emeritus professor of English at the College of DuPage” which the article fails to mention is a community college. I don’t know, maybe that’s the same as any other college.
