Re: TNG S5: Silicon Avatar

I like TNG generally however when it comes to Picard always being soooo tolerant of enemies it really has me pulling my hair. Ferengi (or Romulan or whatever) ship attacking the Enterprise? Picard never fires back. In one episode, a terrorist ship attacks a shuttle with Riker and an ambassador inside. Picard never lifts a finger to defend it. Not even a warning shot. He just hurries Riker on to get back to the Enterprise. The ambassador (at least his humanoid body) died. The way he puts the lives of an enemy ahead of thousands of human and other Federation lives, of his own crew's lives, of the integrity of his ship, is appaling. Against the Nanites, against the CE, he's a Wuss.
