You seem to be saying criminals should remain in prison, because those

So will you complain about Trump releasing those who were convicted of
attacking police officers at the capitol, after being caught doing so on
video?

 
No comments -  I don't live there and thus know little about what goes
on there... just as you and Florida.

endless opinions on what goes on here!

And just imagine: What if the world had some sort of system of

a person might be able to use it for research, and find real data on

Oh, wait...   ;-)

The Internet provides access to many things, but knowledge is not
obtained simply by reading what someone wrote. Obtaining knowledge
requires processing the data by reasoning... sifting and sorting
through what you read, factoring in more than one opinion and
understanding each writer's agenda, applying logic, etc. 

Communication, whether it be writing, talking, hand signals, smoke
signals, facial expression, etc is a process of trying to influence
another person's thinking. Knowing, or at least trying to understand a
person's reasons for doing that is an important consideration.
