Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence
You can choose to read and decide your yourself what you want
I am not here to tell you how to think
You seem like a smart fella, but you tend to argue from a lot of emotion and fallacies

I am in the auto recycling business and we process 1200+ cars a month
