You are right on both counts.
GM1: I duck questions which are worthless. And after seeing numerous posts
of yours over the past few years on goanet, Ive observed that you are very
fond of asking questions which simultaneously make insinuations. In the navy
we call such people * sea lawyers*.
GM2: Like all Armed Forces veterans, I indulge in name calling when the
Services which I love, and which are the life blood of my country, are
sought to be brought into disrepute, especially by foreigners, that too of
Goan origin.

re# 1: That is a well worn duck. Expected, but a duck alright. Nada Mais
expected when there are no justifiable answers. As we call it in the medical
profession : Those who cannot give straight answers, "Lagao Bondollam"; Oh
Yes, we call them Quacks.
Your l "sea Lawyers" notwithstanding, the principle which is import here is
the Rule of Law. Either you subscribe to that principle, or you do not. And
after seeing numerous posts of yours over the past few years on goanet, I've
come to the conclusion that you believe that "some entities" are ABOVE the
LAW.
re# 2: However one spins it, disrepute is normally brought about by one's
own actions. That is why reputable institutions and individuals do their
business in the sunshine. That 'sunshine policy' conforms to the doctrine of
accountability.
Duck, Quieting of Titles, Land Grab and the selective application of
existing law - does not. ( BTW: found that GOI regulation which
"permits"...etc .....Yet?)
"Love" is not the central point here. It is fine for Novels and Movies, but
NOT in the field of Equity and Justice. Nobody, not even one's own self can
be Above the Law; NOT in a democracy.
BTW: in a democracy, every single individual is the " life blood of a
country" - be he/she a cook, butler, taxi driver, doctor, IT person, or the
person who struggles hard in the hot climes of the Gulf... so that he can
send enough money to feed his elderly parents in Goa.
But....spin away ! May be, you can convince yourself that others cannot read
spin.
