    I strongly suggest that this is not what they intended you to take 
away from your training.

   After all, your position sugests that you may as well do any damn 
thing you want, because there is absolutely nothing you can do that is
safe.

   In fact, I've been through the federal government training, and 
that's not what they teach.

   It is, however, inevitably what some folks took away from it, when 
they went into it with the mindset that the whole thing was stupid to 
start with.
