“You are not a human till you’re in my phonebook,” says late-comedian Bill Hicks during a bit on abortion. We know where he stands on the topic. But there are others out there who strongly disagree with him – some who might even go so far as to kill for …

We Walking Dead fans are an emotional bunch. We love these post-apocalyptic survivors and root for them every step of the way. Right along with our most beloved characters, we felt the blessed coolness of relief when Tyreese (Chad Coleman) escaped that groaning walker hoard. We felt righteous indignation when Daryl …
