108. Our PILLAR of Society's ETHICS

VIEWS@8211

As I work to construct my ARGUMENT, building on a background of 'givens,' or at least 'ASSUMPTIONS' certain 'givens' lie at the base of my Argument, I again QUOTE the following:

In following posts I will venture - by quoting text proof of fact - to walk through several years of Discovery, questioning Court Officers allowances and expressions. By comparing Rules, Ethics, and actual outcome, using example, I will question whether matters by behaviour, showed in fact - proportionality, unbiased fairness, and due process.
