It is fairly incredible that these folks find no immediate concern regarding opening up the ALAC to individuals. ALAC is not an American centric group and yet it acts as arrogant as any cadre i know of in recent history. It has been nearly two years in full conception yet there is still no real voting to place the folks in power. Clearly they are just an extension of staff without individual input and therefor a fraud upon the DOC and the rest of the world.
