mistakes, we cannot support his promotion just because he "stood for
something good". He made the mistakes that proved his *lack* of values
(assuming all evidence is accurate). The FBI, although a rotten snotball
of power abusers, they didn't need to work on this one-- he handed it to
them like a child molesting Catholic priest handing an anti-religion
argument to an Athiest. We should all bow our heads in shame that we did
not seek to out him sooner, befriend him, and be there for him when he
was thinking murder was a solution. Additionally, we should seek to find
more evidence, follow the trials, and continue to discuss-- but blindly
follow a murderer because we don't like the FBI? Rationality
unfortunately doesn't work like that. Let's pick our battles, shall we?
