If we had indentured community service as a punishment for crimes, rather than just putting all the criminals in a big box together, we could get a lot of good free work, cut taxpayer costs, and cut the overcrowding in prisons.

    A lot of states do have that.

  • TheFaith Says:

    Did you studied in Harvard or something?
    I was right, but a qustion:
    Chrono said something about temporary clone, it means the clone is just temporary or he was made in due to the paradox(therefore the name temporary).

  • TheFaith Says:

    Sorry no “?”

  • Mr. Will Says:

    @TheFaith

    Don’t feel much like searching through the archives, but I believe the term was “temporal” clone. I still don’t know what it means though, haha.

    And, my guess is that Chrono will excel in the Guardian Military, due to his natural skill and minimal training from Link. Perhaps getting really good at magic, earning the name “Castor”.

  • DS Piron Says:

    I don’t think there’s a reference to it being a temporal clone, I remember one too though.

    Temporal would mean something to do with time, thus a clone created via time paradox…

  • Hoshi Says:

    Temporal clones are always doomed
    But anywasys, this strengths my belief the Caster is Crono that got stuck in the past

  • Nokareon Says:

    I don’t know if “Castor” has any relation to someone who casts magic, a “Caster”. According to the dictionary, “Castor” is “a reddish-brown oily substance secreted by beavers, used in medicine and perfumes”

  • nathen Says:

    it would make sense, Castor could be Chrono trying to help Link

    @Mr. Will

    I think the comic you’re looking for is this one:
    http://www.heroes-comic.com/?p=1021
    the third panel has what i believe what you’re looking for.
    (I’m so redundant, can’t think of a better way to say that)
    Irreconcilable paradox with result of a 2nd crono being temporally duplicated back on the Epoch

    “Meanwhile in 1985″

    …Wait, what?

    Glad to see your back by the way.

  • CTfan Says:

    @Nighthawk I was going to say that. Maybe it’s a joke.

  • Mr. Will Says:

    @ptmc2112

    Thank you very much, that’s exactly the comic I was looking for :) If that’s the case, then we need to remember that the Chrono we’re looking at in this comic is the “real” one and the Chrono with Link and Co. is the temporal clone, this leads to another point.

    @Hoshi
    “Temporal Clones are always doomed”

    If this is the case, then Chrono with the heroes has to die eventually, and I think it would be BEYOND badass to have a Chrono/Castor fight scene.

  • Brenan Says:

    In a lot of cases, indentured community service would help, especially in the long term like you’re proposing for Chrono there.

    However, many criminals simply aren’t going to be good at what they’re told to do – they might skip town, go get high before their service, etc. And military service for convicted criminals… Maybe for first-time slightly major offenders, like your situation above, but a lot of military personnel won’t want a rapist or psychopath working with them, and you’d start seeing a lot of unofficial death penalties. “Training accident.”

  • Robert L. Lynch Says:

    The rapists or psychopaths get put on the front lines; they’re the core of “Operation: Human Shield.”

  • Madrobot Says:

    *Gasp* SOUTH PARK REFERENCE ALERT!

    lol.. this comic always gets more and more interesting, what’s next? =D
