GEE how many time must i keep repeating this for the closed minded.
Picking up stuff IS NOT the official crime scene investigation, only 1 small part.
The official crime scene investigation started on Sept 21 after the rescue and recovery operation.
How many times must I repeat this for the...well, for the you-know-what?
Yes, you are right that picking up evidence is part of the official crime scene investigation. Here's how human thought is structured:
Premise 1: All men are mortal;
Premise 2: Socrates is a man;
Conclusion: Socrates is mortal.
This arrangement of premises leading to a conclusion is called a syllogism. When the conclusion follows from the premises, the syllogism is said to be valid. For the conclusion to be
true, the premises must be true. In a sense, the way I have presented the syllogism is a form of shorthand. What I'm saying is that
IF all men are mortal, and
IF Socrates is a man, then Socrates is mortal.
Moving to a more relevant syllogism:
Premise 1: The FBI started gathering evidence, restricting certain areas, and interviewing witnesses on September 11;
Premise 2: Gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, etc. are parts of a criminal investigation;
Conclusion: The FBI started its investigation on September 11.
The syllogism is valid in that the conclusion follows from the premises. To demonstrate that the conclusion is not
true, you must show that at least one premise is not
true.
You cannot do this. Premise 1 is a matter of fact. Premise 2 is true by the definition of a criminal investigation. Therefore, the conclusion is
TRUE.
When you reject logic, you render communication very difficult.
