"A legitimate reason for that water use that he doesn't wish to disclose because it would incriminate him for something else" is an odd definition of "legitimate." ;)
- lotsofpulp 10y agoJust because something is legally a crime doesn't mean it's not legitimate.
- panzagl 10y agoActually, that's exactly what it means.
