You use an awful lot of 'I think' and 'sounds like,' which pretty much makes your posts less than credible.

I think people who are not afraid to say "I think" or "maybe" or "sounds like" or "apparently" are far more credible than people who shove their opinions down the throats of others, as though their opinions were facts--which they are NOT. People who are an authority on everything have little credibility. People who use "I think" instead of stating their opinions as though they were facts also protect themselves far better from DEFAMATION LAWSUITS. Think someone can't get the location and identifying info on an internet poster by subpoena? Think again. Were you and Freedox with Richard Ricci every moment of his parole, is that how you and Freedox know for sure that "the short answer is no," that he didn't use drugs? That is a bet I would take: Ricci used drugs while out on parole. (Oh, gee, whaddya know--can't get sued for "defaming" a dead person.)

For the record, Devil_Anse has twisted and misconstrued yet another of my posts.......sighhhhhhhhh. What I said in post # 158 was, "Short answer.......no, based upon this source, there is no indication of Ricci using drugs (other than alcohol) since his release from prison in September, 2000." The question pertained to whether or not there was documentation of recent drug use by Ricci. I don't believe anyone has produced any such documentation yet.

actually i would be willing to bet that you could get your pants sued off by defaming a dead person. if the dead person had family with big-bucks, and wanted to bury you.
