All Writers Are Liars. They Twist Events

I Am Not A Victim. I Am An Angry Survivor.

If You Are Going To Make Companies, Corporations, Actually Responsible For The Safety Of Other People's Lives, Then If They Fail In Their Duty, The Only Thing To Prevent Them Failing In Their Duty Is The Fear That They Would Be Put Behind Bars.
