The Pentangular Gate

I sort of wonder if, you know, Teyla and Ronon kind of only get exposed to the first world part of Earth, given who they spend their time with. And, sure, inter-planetary hositlity still exists, but it seems like, as a general rule, one planet's population gets on okay, so the combination of the two makes it weird that the Earth people, who clearly have the resources, based on Atlantis, don't help.

but who's going to start a brawl over two guys making out in San Francisco

I'm pretty sure there's always someone, even in San Francisco. Even with Ronon and Lorne, and possibly more so, since they don't come across as stereotypically gay.
