The people on Star Trek are stupid
Edited on Tue Jul-29-08 04:13 PM by jasonc
Janeway just beamed some non-humanoid alien to the sickbay, with absolutely no prior knowledge of it, or its behaviors, if it is a threat, etc... and big surprise, it attacked a member of the crew...

I hereby Nominate Janeway as the stoopidest Captain in the Universe.

edit: for some more background, some wave followed them, and when it hit, damaged the hull a bit and downloaded some staticy sounding gobbly gook, so they follow it back to its origin, find some non-humanoid thing that they think is hurt and beam it to the ship with absolutely no regard for crew safety it would seem.

How have they actually managed to stay alive doing things this dumb?

3. Ooh, racaulk's gonna kick your ass.
But you're right, she's not the shiniest captain in the fleet.

6. Meh
I am not a trek fan, mainly because when I see this show I can not get past the idiocy of the show and the people on it.

7. There's a great list on bored.com
that deals with the proper procedure for a starfleet captain. I can't find it, but Janeway's activities would definitely rank in the do not do category.

19. Probably posted before, but here is:
The Top 20 Sci-Fi Starship Captains of All Time

http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/geekend/?p=937

Obviously Malcolm Reynolds should be first, but much of the rest of the list looks okay.

20. That list seriously sucks

How the hell did Janeway make it that high up?
