CHIEF: I know you've solved 26 recent crimes b/c the perp wrote the crime down, but these guys are too smart for that. I'm sending McGillicutty to camp out and hope the suspect makes a mistake.

Much of the hand wringing, imo, is over a critic explicitly saying they are judging the moral fabric of a piece of art because of the tools used to create it and it’s making some folks feel uncomfortable and shamed. The people who feel that way should sit with that feeling.
