It's not a matter of an agenda.
Its a matter of competence.
I am an employer (5 employees). If I told one of them to check to make sure a machine was turned off before another employee checked it, I would expect it to be done.
If his incompetence resulted in a death, the employee would be fired. (and I would be sued)
When you tell a trained officer to search a car, and he fails to find three dying boys in the trunk, you could say he did a VERY sloppy job.
People who work in a drive-in theater know how to search a car for people. It's not difficult.
The reality of it is, Linkinpunk, that our worldviews are in conflict. We agree up until the point of punishment...you are litigiously-minded...I am not. I don't care for government workers and I don't care for trial lawyers. To me they are birds of a feather.
