Ehhh...it sounds like it might have been self defense. If not then yeah holy loving poo poo. Wild Force has always been my favorite PR and I got up every morning to watch it. This is weird.

I think I would say to my daughters if they were to ask me this question... A shitpost is the greatest gift that you can give someone, the ultimate gift of giving and don't give it to someone lightly, that's what I would say.

Well... crap.

Wild Force was one of my favourite series growing up. Even if this turns out to be self defense (which it sounds like it might be, especially given Medina went and called the police after), that he was so quick to be arrested probably says enough on its own. drat, this is gonna make watching the series ever again real awkward, to say the least.

Finally, now we don't have to hear "oh man a red ranger killed a dude" when it's really just some guy who played an extra kid in a single episode once or whatever that previous one the media kept over-blowing the actor role on.

Yeah the fact that a man has died will make it very difficult to watch an old series of power rangers.

Cops are super quick to put handcuffs on people sometimes. It's best to wait for the trial to play out before making any judgements.

I said 'at the very least', because, well, I could hardly find the words to properly ascribe for the worse (and almost certainly more important) aspects of the matter. It's just... surreal to be flipping through the news one day and find that a childhood idol has gone and killed somebody. I apologise if this just seems all kind of weird a reaction, just can't quite get my head around it, even if the facts, few as they currently are, are relatively straightforward.

I adore Wild Force and Cole was my Red Ranger, but I don't mind at all as long as it was self defense. I'm interested in how this situation develops for that reason.

I thought he was one of the worst red rangers acting wise the show ever had, but he has good physicality.

I loved this show for many years, but I learned long ago to not let my love of the characters attach to the actors themselves. It's weird when your favorite ranger character has a drug problem, or has a really lovely affair, or I guess kills someone (possibly in self defense?)

I haven't watched this show or it's Japanese counterpart since Mystic Force. Maybe I'll watch this dinosaur show just because Dino Thunder was the last one I liked.

It's only had one episode so far, and while it's not rewriting the books on good Power Ranger seasons, it's not bad, so you could do worse.

It was a freak accident. What should have happened is when he stabbed him, a burn mark would appear on the victim's shirt and then he would jump backwards doing a couple twists and fall to the ground in slow motion

Pretty sure the wild force megazord was destroyed anyway.

I hated Wild Force, but drat if he wasn't passionate in his role. Still a shitlord, though. Will be interesting to see how the trial plays out.

Hooray! It really did sound like self defense, though he probably could have defence himself non lethally.

Yeah I would understand being apprehensive about wearing a shirt like that if it were from a more recent series, but you're wearing something from a 1993 series so nostalgia makes it perfectly acceptable.
