What do you feel when an innocent person get locked up or even executed?

Asked by Neal Bracken about 6 years ago

I feel bad about it for at least 15-20 seconds. Sometimes longer.

When you where around a really horrible person convicted of the worse crimes there are. Could you feel something really bad about them or sicking?

Asked by Merry about 6 years ago

After a while you sort of get numb to the gross and disgusting things people are capable of doing to each other. Sad, but true.

Asked by cory jackson almost 6 years ago

From what I can tell (your writing leaves something to be desired) the Captain at the jail asked your wife what gang you are in. As far as I know it is perfectly legal for him to ask. It is also perfectly legal for her to tell him to pound sand.

What’s your opinion on auditors?

Asked by Cale over 5 years ago

An auditor is someone who borrows your watch to tell you what time it is and then charges you for the service. OK, that is an oversimplification. If you have a proper admin. set-up where people are doing their job your need for audits should be small and seldom. That being said an occasional audit does serve to keep the people who should be on their toes actually on their toes. They are a pain but an occasionally necessary pain.
