My first move is always to find out as much as I can about the history and context of a given situation. Then apply the basic principles I have previously cited, season it all with a hefty dose of common sense and reach some conclusions. Most people do not want to think let alone do the research. But enough do, usually, but not always.

Yep, I did that for many politicians, and presented the info to Parliament which ruled in my favour and then did nothing, and the crooked politicians got court orders against me for stalking.
