The factory i interpreted as the legal system itself processing him down . I think i made that pretty clear and did not need to explain every individual component .

If you don't know something look into it . If you had you would know i grew up hunting in the far north .And we had to rend our kills for resources . It's no obscure fact about me. But i'll take on the idea of not assuming malice and drop the subject .
Nice reframing, but I do not believe that was the intent of the OP quote I referred to.
I dont bother with seeking out info via the search engine in this forum. I have used this forums search feature twice now and it did not work well for me. Though most forum search features leave much to be desired.
Assuming malice has become a bane in most forums over the last decade.
