I am a law enforcement officer and I do not see a problem with the statement HAL made. They were simply giving an opinion with a disclaimer to calm their customers. If it looked like a random murder by someone that hates cruisers, I would expect HAL to report that information as well. We are adults and can use our brains to form opinions and make decisions. I for one only believe 10% of the stuff I hear on the news and 90% of what I see with my own eyes. It is nearly always in the best interest of people to call it as you see it or rumors will rule the day!!!
