It seems that on my really well laid out posts, i do not get much feedback or discussion. I guess most people just completely agree with it. Nothing more needs to be said.
The illusion shattering is really... you just don't know what to do with that kind of data. You start off wishing it is all a bad dream, and that you will wake up. Because, this is not the way you were told it was supposed to be.
It seems your construction management background comes through in how well you lay out your posts.
Perhaps for now you will have to settle for 80 views and upvotes. And sadly, right now a value of $2.37 really isn't that bad.
That said, I appreciate the clear, pertinent info you present in your posts.
I was just going to vote and move on for exactly that reason - mostly agree, what else to be said except maybe 'How sad that it's so.' And yes, what should I do with this information? My interactions with the police have been few. Some were nice, some were jerks. Keep a good lawyer on retainer, just in case? I've met more lawyers than police and found a higher percentage of jerks among them. You've laid out the problem clearly, but finding a solution would be a lot more complex.
I have solutions.
And will write about them.
Its just hard to talk about solutions without laying out the groundwork of the problem.
.... but then you just bore those who already are aware. :-p
I understand and look forward to reading some solutions. I don't know what percentage of your readers are already aware, or what percentage of those would be bored (?) but I like well-reasoned and well-written discussions!
