If you are so smart try and prove him wrong.

There is nothing to prove, as the picture says everything. Maybe they will claim that they were airbrushed into the photo.. :roll:

[As I See It]

But Pinellas Sheriff Bob Gualtieri, also a Scott supporter, said the campaign made it clear that it was a Scott re-election event. Gualtieri said he was invited by a Scott staffer named Cody and that the campaign asked him for a private email address to avoid using a government email account for political purposes. "It was unequivocally clear to me that this was purely a political event," Gualtieri said. "I knew what I was going into."

But how do you know for a fact that we were told the same thing that Sheriff Bob Gualtieri was told?

You can assume all you want, but the fact is you can not prove this beyond a reasonable doubt.

So, you got punk'd.

And as we all know, or most of us know, that when making a case for the courts you need much more than "probable cause" for a conviction.

A ruling on such a matter would be based on what is termed " as a pre-ponderence of evidence". The side that has the best quality or most evidence would win a decision. There is no rule of "beyond a reasonable doubt" in matter such as this. "Probable cause" exists in in criminal cases and not always in civil or regulatory matters.
