The scum. Hanging's too good for him.
Point of order: I have not lost yet.Gracius Maximus:The Court has opined that situations like this are best served via recall. But, since Flemingovia didn't win, it is likely just to be overlooked.
Perhaps the attorney general could recruit some temporary staff to help cope with the unexpected demand?mcmasterdonia:The Attorney General's office may be overworked and clearly understaffed, however I have confidence that they will give this complaint the consideration it deserves.
There is no need to be so formal in this thread. You can call me "flemingovia", I do not mind.Romanoffia:Oh.......my........GOD! .
Re-write the complaint with better supporting evidence, in detail, to give us something we can actually work with. You might consider adding a bit of onions and wine-sauce to spice it up a bit

Which begs the question, what does God say when he sneezes?
Oh, and is there any chance you could use your Godly Omnipotence to resurrect Skippy and his mum? We've run out of Roo tail and we can't get to the grocery until Friday.

I am amazed that the vast staff of the attorney generals office still needs the public to do its job.
Please tell us, what do you and your staff actually DO all day?
mcmasterdonia:As I said, I set this complaint out in a deliberately clear manner because I knew how busy this office is. I can't make it any easier for you, you may need to conduct your own additional investigation.
Perhaps we should cut government funding to the office.
I will look over this complaint and do an internal investigation within the AGs office, looking at any applicable law, intent, etc.
You seem to completely misunderstand the very nature of the job of a prosecutor.flemingovia:I will look over this complaint and do an internal investigation within the AGs office, looking at any applicable law, intent, etc.
I request that Romanoffia be recused or recuse himself from this investigation. His antipathy and bias towards me is well known, as he has shown himself to be a bit of a tit in the posts split from this thread. I do not believe anyone believes that he could be objective in this matter.
So that's a no on the recusal,then?Romanoffia:You seem to completely misunderstand the very nature of the job of a prosecutor.flemingovia:I will look over this complaint and do an internal investigation within the AGs office, looking at any applicable law, intent, etc.

The very nature of a prosecutor is to nail the accused to a tree with the biggest spikes and hammer available. Antipathy, Bias are the very nature of any Prosecutor or Investigator for The Prosecution because the sole function of a Prosecutor or Investigator for the Prosecution is to be antipathetic and biased against the accused. Sympathetic prosecutors are ineffectual and shirkers. Prosecutors have one and only one function: to absolutely crucify the accused.
To try to force or otherwise coerce a Prosecutor in a trial on the part of a defendant is tantamount to the Defendant (or potential defendant, we know not which at this time) tampering with the Court itself in order to assure that a case is dismissed or found in favour of the Defendant.
That is to say, that were I or any Prosecutor to engage in prosecuting any case, such prosecution would be conducted with all due vigour and by all legal and constitutional means. It would be silly to have a prosecutor who wasn't absolutely convinced of a Defendant's guilt.
Also, you do not call an Officer of The Court a tit. Go and call a Court Justice you don't like a tit and see what happens there. Call a Prosecutor a tit in the context of the Courtroom and I am fairly sure it would garner some kind of Judicial discretionary action, under the current and revised Court Rules, that the tit caller would not be entirely please with.
As it stands now, I am about the most mild denizen of the AG's office and will investigate the matter as required. Impartiality is the purvey of the Court Justices. Going after accused individuals is not an impartial activity.
Hence, you would best be remiss in calling anyone a tit as it does not engender any desire other than to go after an accused individual with anything less than undue vigour. Impugning and nailing an accused individual to a tree before The Court are what Prosecutors do. Prosecutors are not required to be unbiased - they are required to absolutely believe the accused is guilty and then go after them by all legal and legitimate means and then nail them to a tree if possible. Anything less would be a dereliction of duty.
Objectivity. You use that term so loosely. The Objective of a prosecutor is to nail the accused to a tree. Objectively speaking, any accused person who has committed actions that upon discovery of the facts is worthy of being nailed to a tree, shall be subjected to the objective goal to that effect, if possible or probably.
Objectively speaking, my objective, should the evidence I will discover support further action, will be to nail you to a tree. Objectively speaking, my object being to assure a conviction, should the evidence support it, will be to objectively work towards a conviction. My job is to exactly to presume your guilt and try that assumption before The Court.
I, unlike The Court, am bound to treat you with the assumption that you are guilty as charged. That is my job and my job is to prove that if the evidence shows that such a charge is viable.
Oh, and don't call me a tit or anything else ever again when I am acting in the capacity of an Officer of The Court. It makes me angry and you wouldn't like me very much when I actually get angry.

Why? Do you think PaulWall is comparable to Hitler? I never mentioned Hitler because personally the analogy never crossed my mind. I was thinking of Terry Pratchett.Romanoffia:flemingovia:Time for a terry Pratchett quote:PaulWallLibertarian42:. So if youre doing nothing wrong you have nothing to fear or to hide.
Almost crossing the line into Godwin's Law there.
.. or an admin for that matter.Flem:More of the AAG's posts have had to be split from the official record into a peanut gallery thread? One might expect this from a member of the public, but not a public servant. Tsk Tsk tsk.
I think it's high time the admin team reined in your behavior as well. You've called the AAG a tit, and insinuated members of the RA are stooges in another thread. Other people would've received an increase in warning level by now. There's that double standard again...Flem:It is interesting that you have had to do two splits on this matter, both prompted by posts from one of your deputies.
Perhaps a bit better discipline from the AGs over his deputy is called for?
A minor distinction I'd say, but I'll cede your point.Flem:First off, I did not call Roman a tit. I said he was acting like a tit. Important distinction.
Not as difficult as one might think. I've been managing thus far.Flem:I will from now on act with greater decorum
Semantics. Damned semantics.flemingovia:First off, I did not call Roman a tit. I said he was acting like a tit. Important distinction. There is some fine role play in this region, and folks act in all sorts of ways that is not their true character (including myself).
However, flap has a point and I will from now on act with greater decorum.
semanticsRomanoffia:Semantics. Damned semantics.
Be that as it may, your implication was that I was indeed a tit.
Oh, it depends upon whether or not the tit in question is in reference to birds or mammary glands. Generally, I have nothing against mammary glands or any other organ of the body.SillyString:semanticsRomanoffia:Semantics. Damned semantics.

noun
1. The branch of linguistics and logic concerned with meaning.
2. The meaning of a word, phrase, sentence, or text.
Yes, as it turns out, a difference in phrasing leads to a difference in meaning; this is the foundation of the study of semantics. There's nothing terribly informative about the apparent accusation that meaning attaches to expression.
Anyways, what's wrong with tits? I think they're pretty great.
The other kind too!
I seem to recall someone crying all over the NS world because he was stated to have been 'acting like a terrorist' within the context of the game.flemingovia:First off, I did not call Roman a tit.

An interesting thought just crossed my mind - in the context of the game, this would be like putting "God" on trial.
