"Your facts then are based on the opinions of others. Surely you understand that there are former students who will agree with anything you say soley because they are angry about being sent to HLA in the first place. Be careful to differentiate between what you consider to be fact and what is obvious false rumor spreading by some angry former students."

Again, ad hominem statements rather than contraindicative factual statements.
1. I have never solicited any information from any former students to generate my statements.
2. Any statements made by any former students (patients) were made willingly by them without influence from me, as I don't know them and have had no contact with them.
3. There are simply too many nearly identical statements by many people including current and former staff and students over many, many years to discount them.
Let's face the facts. There are illegal, immoral and unethical activities going on at HLA and there have been copious reports from many independent credible sources (including dozens of staff members, past and current).
Believe me when I tell you I'm not gullible and my bullshit detector has had a recent calibration. The posters who seem not to be credible are ones that blindly defend HLA without regard to the fact that they have only anecdotal "evidence" to support their assertions and who try to argue with people who have direct first-hand knowledge. Mrs. Gray is a prime example of what I consider to be a non-credible poster.
Anonymous:
Of course it is possible. I just have yet to see a claim that is true. I have seen a lot of rumors, but nothing that I can point to that is fact.
RobertBruce:
What in your mind makes them rumors?
A child comes out of there and says "Hey I was abused at HLA."
Why then automaticaly discount his or any other claim stating it simply to be a "rumor" rather than a fact?
If a woman claims she was raped is it declared to be a rumor? No shes generally believed and then the investigation follows.

Don't feed the trolls!

They are rumors because there is no evidence. Someone saying something happened does not make it fact. I could say that you raped someone last night and it holds not one bit of water because there is no evidence other than me saying it. I can guarantee you that if there were any evidence of someone mistreating a student at HLA they would be gone in a heartbeat.
