Imagine you learned there was a case of live hand grenades at your child's daycare, but the manager wants to explain how many steps it would take for any children to access them. You'd be like "that's not remotely the point." @GovParsonMO wants to misdirect anger away from him 2/

@MalwareJake After rereading Parson's posts and the carefully chosen wording thereof, it is clear that he knows that the law wasn't broken here but he is trying to build a case to use the law to retaliate against someone that he feels embarrassed him.
