Distractions are part of driving (unfortunately). The trick is to get those distractions minimized and the information you need with as little movement as possible.

Yes, exactly like a manual. Except no clutch pedal and about 100 extra lbs. If there is no clutch, ITS AN AUTO.

The process of receiving financial assistance from the government is months long and involves a number of procedural controls designed to help prevent fraud and prosecute it.

In what world was he REQUIRED to start a larger conversation? It's a personal matter, and he says it is painful to him, so not wanting to open up the floor to a greater debate is pretty understandable.

His concern wasn't for the public, it was for his personal stake in the matter. That was far more important then starting a nationwide conversation, especially since he doesn't seem to have any idea of what exactly she thought was assault.
