What's this?

That I do not trust a lot of our "official" reports?

News Flash, I have never denied it and pretty much embrace it. I know first hand how "Official" reports are written and I know damn well they are usually filled with half truths. That does not mean the report isn't "true." It is just not the "whole truth." The whole truth is always classified. Always.
