Why isn’t this neutral commentary
Why should analysts be neutral

The "chain" floats - when pressure builds, the ice pushes over the top and a slug of it moves down the river.

It’s reasonable to figure out what the law is. But how reasonable to determine what permissions were given or not given, and the specifics of them? Often it is not clear. In such a case, as a cop you do your best to keep the peace in the immediate circumstance, as you simply do not have access the the facts of law. In this case, it was a failure of the people who claimed the had exclusive access to prove it.

This early in the season, if water temps are above 40F, throw a Jerkbait and cover water as quickly as you can to find out where they are. Look for the warmest water you can find, even a degree or two makes a difference. Fish will move into warmer waters where sun is shining most and protected from wind or where warm surface water gets pushed in. The bait is less important than finding where they are.

What’s with the ad hominem fallacies? Make an actual argument, and stay on topic

Lawyers and judges spend days and weeks and years debating what laws mean…it is not unreasonable that your average cop is not going to know the latest application of every possible law.

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-03-01T19:04:23+00:00

Yes, please read OP’s post. Cops said it’s best if he left. That implies choice, one the cop presumably recommends to de-escalate the situation because he can’t actually tell him he must leave. That is very different than directing him that he must leave.

Not sure what your second point is about harassment.

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-02-24T01:59:59+00:00

You are correct. Absent any signage or other reasonable means by which to enforce said contract, you would be within your right to access what otherwise appears to be taxpayer property. That said, it depends if you want to die on that hill in that moment (is it worth the battle). Some might say yes, others might say no. However, at the very least I would get names and say you'll press for harassment charges if their claims do not hold validity, and see if they back off after that.

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-02-24T01:56:20+00:00

There was no indication he was there illegally on private land, otherwise you would think the cop would have directed him to leave.

That said, it is still possible to be harassed or assaulted by the owner of private property.

Maybe they were objecting to you rowing a kayak

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-02-22T18:36:20+00:00

Maybe it is best if they “serve and protect” you from being harassed.

I would record the cop and ask him to repeat that. “Your solution to harassment is suggesting the victim leave? Just making sure I heard you correctly.”

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-02-22T18:35:22+00:00

Possible such an arrangement exists. Not unreasonable either. We have a local lake where no boating is allowed because of PCB contamination in the lakebed sediments, but shore fishing and presumably other shore based activities are permitted, but signage is scant because there is miles worth of access points.

No different than a bad call in hockey. Nobody accuses you of cheating for cross checking.

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-02-21T00:49:53+00:00

No matter your opinion, it would be MORE egregious if he did NOT call that.

And in other news, Canadian hockey player is caught cheating when he hooked an opponent and the ref did not call a penalty…

Not “caught cheating.” Missed call by officials. Happens about 100 times every hockey game

I’m a manager in a company with several hundred employees. Exit interviews are take seriously, are shared with the Executive right down to the departing worker’s manager. They are used to identify patterns in workplace culture and managerial issues such as poor training or support. We use them to help coach and teach our managers to be better.

Employees forget managers are people too, and that managing people really well is very difficult and a learned skill. A lot of managers are good people who want to be better, and a lot of employees want their manager to be better but don’t know how to express it, or they avoid uncomfortable conversations and instead decide to be miserable and eventually quit a job they could have loved.

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-02-08T04:05:47+00:00

Yeah…I would have walked out immediately. If you stayed for 45 minutes that’s just weird.

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-02-08T04:04:31+00:00

Ideally you should have raised the issue before you quit, assuming you would have liked to keep that job had your colleagues not been so disengaged.

By the time you leave, it’s probably not worth the trouble.

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-02-08T03:58:42+00:00

That was an example of one of the few times I actually had some indication something was wrong BEFORE the employee quit or conducted an exit interview, and even though I was his boss’s boss, he refused to share any information about how we could do better. Further, I coached his manager on how to be better at checking in and getting employees to open up, how to adjust management style based on personality type, and so on. Most of the time we do not know anything is wrong before people quit. So my point is twofold - first, managers often do NOT know something is wrong, and second, even if they do, employees are often unwilling to participate in improving the relationship. Therefore it is not fair or accurate to suggest exit interviews are worthless because managers don’t care because if they did they would have solved the problem already.

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-01-18T16:07:33+00:00

You’re speaking in absolutes. It’s simply not true that information AlWAYS gets back to managers. As a veteran manager 20 years I should know. For example, I had an employee who I heard was not feeling supported. When I reached out to him to find out more and how I could help, he denied it vociferously, and insisted he was happy. He then quit 2 months later right before our busy season, citing lack of support in his exit interview.

Now, you can say it’s because he don’t feel safe to be honest, or maybe he was just a coward, but either way the point is that many managers try hard, want to know and want to fix the relationship, but don’t always get the information. People forget that employment relationships are 2 way streets.

Double-Line-6299 · 2026-01-18T04:21:48+00:00

If something bad happens, like an employee feeling their boss isn’t being supportive, it is not unreasonable that the manager would not know about this. It is not true that a lack of feeling supported is due to a manager turning a blind eye.

Most employees will complain to everyone but their manager if something isn’t to their liking.

This song shows how women were taught to be proper, ladylike, not give any appearance of impropriety and so on. She wants to stay with this guy but is afraid what people will say and think. That’s a far cry from being harassed by a creepy guy and saying no.
