Comments

IPP SENTENCE

Jez  A sentence rotten to its core. 'risk' a word that is used frequently in Oasys reports. They forget the word that needs to be put before it. 'perceived'. Their assessment is only an opinion based mainly on scores in a Word document assessment. The sentence has no public protection purpose as mentioned in the Unintended consequences report. Perceived risk has only one purpose in my opinion and that is to justify inexcusable persistent persecution upon someone's life. How is that fair or just.
