They have addressed his complaints many times over the years, long before social media, he simply doesn't like the answers so he keeps harping on them.  Larry has a definite bias that anything MDC does that he might not like is stupid, criminal and incompetent, and anyone who works for them is taking bribes, incompetent and doesn't care anything about the resources.   While I most certainly have many things I don't personally agree with I know many MDC employees and have yet to meet one that doesn't care about what they do.

Correct.  Being an Agency makes it even easier.  They have more people available to disprove outright lies.

No, when an agency "plays along" it simply lends credence to the complainer rather than minimalize him.

Edited to add.  If they had never addressed any of his complaints I would tend to agree but they wrote him off many years ago after trying to understand his viewpoint and explaining theirs.

You missed my earlier point.   Playing along (addressing concerns), at least reasonably, is just part of their job.   Suck it up buttercup and do the right thing.   Enter the room, address the concern, then you can respectfully refuse to hash it out any further.    

You can't just punch anything you aren't in the mood to talk about with the "NUTJOB" stamp and carry on.   If we could just do that then Phil's place would still have bedbugs, and the Duck's would be running tours today.

Their stance kinda appears to be an attempt at minimalizing genuine concerns.  Surely you aren't in support of that?

Wrench sorry but you have missed my point. " Enter the room, address the concern, then you can respectfully refuse to hash it out any further"

They have done exactly that multiple time over the last 20 years, to the point if a genuine great idea were to out of his columns it would take some time for anyone to even notice.

I apologize.  I missed out on every single time they responded.   Is there an archive by chance, I'd like to read/hear them all.

I missed this post.   There was life before the internet, this is true.   Has it been 20 years?  Man time does fly.

No worries wrench, I am sure someone or several someones in MDC has a folder with their responses, if those someone's even still work there.  I have seen the same pattern with other folks and other agencies.

It won't make any difference. 

Much like LD, even if told the truth, since it won't match your agenda, you won't believe it.
