What a shame about that Judge Holloway getting wrapped up in criminal acts. If we can't even trust a man that should be ensuring that justice is served, then whom can we trust

What's your definition of a good person?

[drmoonstone]

I asked first.

[revengeisbitter]

Well for one, a good person will never say they're good.

[drmoonstone]

Even if they truly believe themselves to be so?

[zealouspeter]

You might as well ask, ma'am, why there are people who drink or eat rotten meat.

[drmoonstone]

So you believe them to be victims of circumstance?

[zealouspeter]

The first does it for enjoyment; the latter does it out of necessity.

Situations vary. There can be no simple "why."

[drmoonstone]

The wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that the law is against those who weren't born with a silver spoon in their mouth?

Of course each situation varies by circumstance, but there must be some moment where the person does what is considered wrong and knows it.

[justanavatar]

It doesn't take a lot.

[drmoonstone]

Then why is it hard for some?

[justanavatar]

Maybe you're expecting the wrong thing.

[drmoonstone]

Really?

[neverstagnate]

One can always trust the facts, madam.

[drmoonstone]

It's better to take them with a grain of salt until you have the big picture though. I commend the research the reporter put into her work, assuming that the facts are indeed true.

[neverstagnate]

Facts are just that, factual, madam. If they are false, then they were never facts to begin with. If one has to do significant digging to find the facts, then it would be in their best interest to do so.

[drmoonstone]

Facts can still be left to interpretation though, depending on one's point of view.

[mentis_reae]

"Whom" can we trust.

[A pause]

And yes. It was extremely courageous of her.

[drmoonstone]

[Adds the 'm' after a moment.]

I honestly wasn't expecting to read such a thing when I picked up the Bugle that day. I'm surprised it was printed.

[mentis_reae]

I myself rather revised my opinion of the paper upwards.

[drmoonstone]

I might have to as well, if the investigation is legitimate. The article being in the Bugle doesn't exactly help it's credibility, stimulating as the article is.
