Before You Post a Comment on this Blog....

We encourage you to read the following guidelines before leaving a comment about any post, or about any other comment, on this blog:

Guidelines for Posting a Comment on Current Issues in Threat Assessment & Threat Management

We welcome all thoughts and comments that are related to threat assessment, threat management, violence prevention, and personal safety - as well as debate sparked by incidents of targeted violence or other current events, as long as the commentary is related in some manner to threat assessment, violence prevention, or personal safety.  If you have a comment or reaction to one of our posts, a question you'd like to pose, or a topic that you suggest we cover, we encourage you to post a comment.

We reserve the right to delete any comment that uses expletives or obscene language, or that includes any personal attack or derogatory commentary directed at a particular individual or group.

When you leave a comment, we strongly encourage you to identify yourself by name or at least by first name and last initial.  If you are a fellow professional in the field of threat assessment, threat management, or behavioral intervention, we ask that -- as a professional courtesy -- you identify yourself using your full name and preferably indicate your relationship to the threat assessment community (e.g., your university affiliation; your firm's name; etc.) whenever you post a comment.  If you have a sensitive or confidential comment or question - or anything else you would prefer not to post in the publicly-viewable comments - please feel free to email us directly at Info@SigmaTMA.com.

Any comment that, in our judgment, doesn't adhere to these guidelines will be removed.

In the spirit of Peter Romary's post, we encourage everyone who posts and comments here to be civil and respectful of all the opinions voiced. This is an important area of practice, and one that is under continual development and improvement. I encourage all of us to strive to raise the bar in the field of threat assessment and violence prevention, through our behavior as well as our work.
