I disagree. Let's not find excuses to stifle oppesing opinions.
You may not like or agree with details in a report. The length
is of no consequence when vital issues are involved.

And then we can accuse Mr. Bajwa of selecting only parts supportive
of his opinion. No Sir. I prefer information unedited.
I do not agree with Mr. Bajwa's perceptions, but I respect his
right to post.

Where the mind is without fear; And the head is held high
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been divided into narrow domestic walls;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way,
in the dreary desert sand of dead habits;
Into that Kingdom of Heaven my Father, let my country awake.
