The point we're making here is, policies mean nothing if they can't be |
| 17 |
backed up. The past has shown that not to happen, and until there's hard |
| 18 |
evidence to show that something is actively being done, then the |
| 19 |
assumption that nothing will happen will stand. I don't care how many |
| 20 |
policies you come up with, they mean absolutely nothing if you can't |
| 21 |
actively deal with the consequences. |
