15. Wow!!!
Ya, I read that too. Looks like I read it better than you. This is not a reputable source for confirmed fact. The only two dramatic points are those that you have highlighted. Doesn't do much for me. And restating the issue is a poor way to counter in a debate.

Let Time be the Judge, Jury, and Executioner.? Do you recognize how irrational that statement is? It means nothing. We ARE a communal jury of informed citizens. Our government requires effective public oversight. Are they going down because they are evil? Yes. But only because we are the jury, and they must not escape judgement. And I'm not talking about executing anyone.

People who don't tell their story without eliminating unnecessary bias are undermining their own credibility as a witness. People who just don't think about smart stuff like that should shut up and listen. I'm usually in a more educational mood. This story is uncorroborated, overly self-affirming, and scant in important information. I would not suggest that you promote it as this may eventually come back to haunt you, at least with some well deserved ribbing. I hope someone else comes forward to back him up and expand the story a bit.
