Title IX

This advice for handling a Title IX complaint in a university sounds like the exact advice I give about police investigating you or anyone you know about a criminal complaint: always have a lawyer and don’t tell the police a goddamn thing. And if you must tell them something, always have a lawyer review it, approve it, and record it.

The police are not there to help you. They are there to make arrests and to hurt people.

Title IX office university reps can’t make arrests, but sounds like they and the police are about the same.

First LT

Fear the Walking Dead really needs a military consultant (as do most shows).

It’s not a bad show, but a first lieutenant in charge of an entire large operation? Not too damn likely. Especially as this first lieutenant looks about 45 or 50. First lieutenants are generally 23-26 but can be older if they do something like green to gold, etc. But never 45, really.

Also, there was a corporal portrayed. Corporals are quite rare. Promotion to that doesn’t really happen often, and if it had been a promotion of expedience (everyone else died in the zombie apocalypse), then his rank insignia would’ve been clipped on, not sewn.

FTWD folks, I’m available for consultation so you won’t screw the military parts up. Low, low price of $500 an hour.
