He's on #wikimedia (and apparently; I can't confirm) #wikipedia-en-admins at the moment. I'm not sure what's funnier; him coming to talk to the little people, or the reaction of some to him being online.

I have completely missed the point here. Those 4 lines are nondescript to me, but obviously are not to others. Can you indulge me in how this relates to your relationship to wales or toast? Actually, probably others on WR can hook me up, but I'm afraid this chat log isn't helping me. QUOTE(vulcanizedrubber @ Mon 12th May 2008, 6:40am) How could Jimbo possibly know "there is absolutely no truth to there being an FBI investigation"? Law enforcement officers quite commonly lie about or conceal investigations until they feel it is in their strategic interest to reveal truthful information. It's part of their job, and it's in the public's best interest. I think this certainly needs some clarification. Withholding findings is common, because it prevents copycats as well as preserves evidence. Also, a fair trial cannot take place when the jury of public opinion is given all relevant facts (which, by the way, will eventually be made privy to the defense). It's not in the public interest, per se, but in the interest of calling on an impartial jury. None of this is done as a malicious act. Defense attorneys, who find their client is guilty, will conceal evidence as well, until they are legally bound to share with the DA, but not the public. It's not fair to say law enforcement officers commonly lie. They lie. There's no doubt. But it's not common, and when you are talking about higher ups, they follow protocol. Sorry to come down on you for that post, but having grown up in a legal environment AND having an axe to grind with cops, these guys are not able to make all fruits of investigations public - it is not public information. |

Whole_tost went on to link to Murphy's forums and whatev. I find it creepy how obsessed he seems to be with meeting Jimbo. But yea, I was in en-admins when he joined. It was shameful how many people started talking. And it was all so immature. It was like every 14-year-old admin got pinged and started spewing stupid. Then he said something about there being no FBI investigation, I uttered "moron" to myself, then tabbed to another chan. This post has been edited by LaraHate: |
