This is getting ridiculous.
> ‘I'm not doubting that they are acting in their official capacity; obviously they're conducting a "criminal investigation" insofar as they are a crime-investigating organization conducting an investigation.’
Let’s just agree on this and move on. I’m not interested in debating semantics over whether that functionally differs from saying they are investigating a crime.

That's good for you but I am interested in this discussion. Language matters; saying they are investigating a crime does make it sound like a crime occurred.
- mycodendral 11mo agoI don't need to prove that FBI investigations are crime-related. That's the presumed norm, not a claim requiring evidence. If you claim otherwise, the burden of proof is on you.
