No.
You certainly don’t like answering direct questions, Charles. Why is that ?
Your premise is false. Therefore, your question cannot be answered. I love answering questions, especially direct ones, and questions relevant to the discussion.
It helps if the questions are not rhetorical, or phrased in the form of a statement, especially a false statement.
So you’re not a lawyer ? Were you a lawyer at any point in your career ?
And it was correct you didn’t answer direct questions until you finally answered one after being pressed several times.
