Naomi - // Sorry (that's an apology) - I thought opinions were welcome here. My mistake. //
Not like you to come over all sensitive about a post questioning your view.
As far as I am concerned, and I am only speaking for myself you understand, your opinion on anything is welcome - as long as it is something you can reasonably know something about.
Other AB'er's motivations - and that definitely includes mine - do not qualify.

Nibble - // It's not for us to dis/approve of their choice, but the family "left" behind should not blame us for their offsprings choices in life. //
A fair point, and to be honest, I don't think they do.
As a newspaper editor, given the choice between a headline where the parents blame themselves, as they obviously do, or a headline where they can be said to blame the police, I know which one I would go with.
One take sells papers, and generates debate, as we are now proving, the other can be taken as read, and doesn't provoke anything at all.

retrocop - // AH @ 1450
// That would be retrocop.never to shy to express a trenchant opinion//
And you were just saying?? //
Fair cop - busted!
I really wasn't trying to be rude or unpleasant, it was just a tongue-in-cheek observation because you were getting so passionate about your viewpoint.
Nothing wrong there - I admire a passionate opinion in anyone, I have many myself - so hopefully I have cleared up any misunderstanding.

Oh dear. It's lost on you. OK, plain English. You're mistaken. I never allow my sensitivities to override my good sense.
//your opinion on anything is welcome - as long as it is something you can reasonably know something about.//

Please let me re-phrase - your opinion on anything is welcome - to me.
Is that better?
