Canonically, Stephen also dumped a body in the Pine Barrens (http://www.colbertnation.com/the-colbert-report-videos/75354/september-12-2006/better-know-a-district---new-jersey-s-3rd---richard-sexton)... Or at least that's the implication. I suppose he could've watched someone else do it. ;P That still leaves him with the moral burden of knowing where some missing person's remains are, though.

I know the reason I feel extra capslocky towards the Jons is the fact that I'm so used to Jon playing the part of The Voice of Reason, so when that trend is broken it sort of lights a fire cracker off in the brain. BUT! Thinking that way leads to a) putting pressure on the Jons to never be wrong and b) thinking the Stephens are incapable of responsibility, which isn't fair, as they're all human. (Not that the wrong the Jons committed in this situation is fine, or that the Stephens are in any way responsible for them making a stupid stupid stupid decision, of course.)

(There are my only thoughts, as your strip is my only exposure to this Needsverse.)
