Unfortunately this is done in many cases.. why?.. (for this case specifically)..IMO its because some opinions are that MR is totally innocent(In the eyes of the law) and do not agree with the allowance of sleuthing and theorizing on possibilities of his involvement in Dylan's disappearance(but obviously this is not a court of law, nor do court standards apply when engaging in discussion on a MESSAGE BOARD) .. frustrated at the fact that the sleuthing and discussions of his involvement continue, IMO ER is attempted to be taken down the exact same path of sleuthing and discussing any negatives that can be found to attempt to somehow even the scoreboard..jmo..
make sense?..nope, it doesn't to me either tho, IMO I am able to clearly see the reason behind it being done..it doesn't make me in any way agree with it being done.. because the fact is as much as someone wants there to be an even/level playing field regarding MR and ER.. the fact is it is NOT LEVEL..NOR EVEN..AND NEVER WILL BE.. there is extremely good reason why one IS allowed by the rules for discussion and why one IS NOT and I'll certainly not waste space, breath, or time rehashing the obvious reasons why one is allowed and the other is not..
so, as I said Dylan's case is not unusual in the least in that regard due to the fact that it happens frequently in many cases where the opinions are split on who they believe is most likeliest involved and many times the opinion that falls on the side of the non sleuthable family member begin attempts at slipping in any negatives they can about the non sleuthable family member..
IMO that's exactly why it happens..jmo, tho
