Be truthful to yourself. Does this guy sound intelligent?

Is he an institution that his findings can be given any consideration? So anybody either sane or insane can put things together without field research, survey or even little interview and then come up with conclusion?

No interviews, he doesn't even know much about the LG he quoted, no interaction with any soul, just mix things up by himself and is telling everyone with bold chest that he right?

I can place on this very witness that he will be heavily fined or send to jail

The highlighted statement alone is the exact reason I won't be expending my time & energy with you.
We have different understanding of what it means to be "truthful" & attributes we consider "intelligent".
Honestly, it's not worth it.

No disrespect intended,take care.

Majesty7:
