    And what part exactly is that "something" you don`t beleive it applies. Sookie beleived something was up when Jason went all rage mode, she didn`t read his mind like a twitter update just for shit and giggles. Jason? and adult? lol no, he`s only an adult legally, Sookie has all her right if she knows he`s in trouble, what`s the other scenario? she does nothing and Jason ends dead in a sewer or in jail or some shit and then BOTH of them will regret she didn`t read his mind back then.

    As for having a problem or not, is not about that, i beleive her powers sometimes activate on their own because she doesn`t has full control, remember the scene at the beggining of the series? it could always be that, or in contrast, people "thinking" too hard she can`t help but listening to it. So if she knows Stupid ass Jason is in trouble, she might as well. I agree she shouldn`t be reading other peoples mind, Jason however, is a time bomb, and may i add, a complete prick this season.

    This thing your scenario lacks is probable cause. I feel like we are thinking about this in a way similar to if Sookie were a law enforcement official and Jason's mind was a house that she might break down the door and enter without permission. If we continue with that analogy, putting aside that Sookie is in no way qualified, trained, or authorized to be a law enforcement official, it seems you are saying Sookie seeing that Jason didn't want her in his 'house' is in and of itself probable cause for her to enter his 'house' to find out why he doens't want her there. This is what I disagree with.

    While Jason is certainly an idiot he holds his life together better than plenty of other people in the country. The fact that he is financially self-sufficient alone is enough to convince me that he deserves basic human rights like privacy and the presumption of innocence. Saying Sookie ought to violate his rights because she thinks there might be something dangerous going on is the same sort of fearmongering bullshit as racial profiling against brown people because they might be illegal immigrants or terrorists. If you get rid of the rights for all the people who might be dangerous you won't be left with any people with rights at all.

    Jason is not a person that *might* fuck up, but rather one that fucked up several times already, again, i got the impression that Sookie didn`t particulary meant to read his mind.

    We seem to have fundamentally different views on the nature of peoples rights so I think we'll have to agree to disagree else this conversation will just go back and forth forever.

    I will just say this though, whether she used her power consciously or not Sookie's comment "I'll read your mind whenever I want" is what I took the most issue with. Even if her ability was completely involuntary she still has a choice in how to view it and behave based on it. That she shows no shame or remorse in violating other peoples minds for her own ends is why I see her as a morally bankrupt individual.

    R.I.P Franklin your return was rather untriumphant and your act was getting kinda stale but you were fun while you were around and without you Tara should be pretty useless until that weird blond chick turns out to be the next major villain and that's alright with me.

    In other news I think Lafayettes nurse is going to turn out to be a werejaguar just for the hell of it. In fact maybe that's what Crystal and her family are. It could explain why they're so insular and could tell what Sam was while adding another flavor of were for us to contend with to keep wolves from getting too stale.

    In conclusion, Russel owns all. Hail Russel.

    So two episodes left. Lot of things to cover:

    - Sookies fairy origin
    - Jason and shifter girl
    - Eric confronting Russell and Russell's plans in general
    - Tara finds out about Eggz
    - Is Bill really trustworthy?
    - Lafayette and lover boy

    I doubt any of it will be covered until season 4, except for Eric and Russell. I think Eric is going to use Sookie's blood to gain temporary immunity and drag Russell out into the sun.

    I have a lot of complains about this season, but don`t get me wrong, is cause i love this series so much, so bear with me ok?

    Lafayette and Jesus: They`re relation happened waaaaaaay to quickly, very unrealistic to me, i don`t like and i don`t care about Jesus in the slightest, he needs to go, get Lafayette a hotter boyfriend, he deserves it.

    Tara: DIE ALREADY!!! as i read in another forum; if i was in a room with Tara, Bin Laden, Hittler and a gun with two bullets, i`d shot Tara, twice.

    Sookie, Eric and Bill: Was it me or did Sookie shruged off the fact that she`s a fairy too quickly? "I`m a fairy? lame, what you want for dinner? OH, silly me, you want blood", still, can`t wait to see how this is all going to turn out in the end.

    Hoyt, Jessica and Tommy: Tommy went from being a boy you would feel pity for to a little bitch, what he did to Hoyt was just low, Jessica is always stunningly beautiful and cute, she needs her own spin off or something, i love her too much.

    Russell: Not enough you in this episode, i was hoping he woul turn that guy into his new husband, he can still do it right?

    Werewolves: Never heard of them.

    Jason and Crystal: I admit being curious about what the deal is with Crystal and her family, and i kinda want her to stay for next season at least, not seeing Jason like a complete prick helped too.

    Arlene: ?????, there`s a limit to ignorance, or so i thought.

    So, Eric and Russel in the sun, i doubt they will die, or atleast that both of em will, not sure who/what will intervene though..

    And where the fuck are all the werewolfs, have they just completely dumped them now?

    I actually don't get all the Tara hate, i like her, and i like her alot more than Sookie.

    Yea, its sad but true. She is so dumb its annoying. And wtf Sam? That was totally uncalled for. Being punked a few times doesn't give you the license to act like a total ass.

    RE: Rolling Stone cover- I hope Alexander Skaarsgard didn't pop wood or anything. I don't know how well Stephen Moyers would take that, even if it is a photo shoot.
