The citations that you offered clearly do not corroborate your claim. The sticking point here is not my alleged "denial issues" but rather your inability to formulate and support an argument.


You're very eager to make wild claims about police procedure, and you post these as if you have some authority to speak on the subject, but you don't actually seem that knowledgeable, you don't back up your assertions in any real way, and you don't answer reasonable requests for clarification.
