| Police only shoot as an absolute last resort as they are accountable for every death, and apart from that, the last thing any policeman or woman wants is to have a death on their record.

If I am then my Mum is as well as we both share similar traits even though my Mum thinks in words and is like a walking encyclopedia and I differ in that I think in pictures and more of a daydreamer or designer.

| Is a great idea for a book, but as with many of these "Discoveries", they talk as if no one else knows about it but the locals have known about it for years. Take a look at the nearby paths which lead right up to the edge and it looks like they go down into it. It reminds me of these littl... |

I agree that you need someone to know you and to work alongside you as your representitive.
What you really could do with is a advocate who knows you and your history and can explain to the police or anyone else if things get out of hand. |
