BAH, humbug.
IMHO all these ‘people’ in ‘positions of authority’ spend EVERY SINGLE DAMN DAY “working” with and alongside people who are JUST AS PHONEY as this “baron” creep.
They’re too used to it all to notice.
It is just what THEY DO.
Every day, too. (Gun stores actually deal with REAL people and easily catch the difference—that is an important part of THEIR JOB!!)
Not to mention many public people want to stay in the public eye so much they get blinded to everything going on around them except that camera in front of them. Famous people want to stay famous on the whole, and will overlook a lot as long as they perceive they are getting the attention that keeps them famous.
